Spice Up Your Winter with these Holiday themed Cookbooks!

DB034746 The Frugal Gourmet Celebrates Christmas by Jeff Smith

More than just a cookbook, this collection offers a celebration of Christmas--and for good measure Smith adds stories and recipes for Chanukah and dishes for some European Christmas Eve feasts. As he tells the Christmas story, Smith provides foods appropriate for members of the manger scene--milk and honey for Jesus, honey cake for the angels, and lamb meatballs for the three wise men. Holiday recipes follow.

The Many Faces of BARD

Starting this Thursday, August 11, 2022, a monthly program called The Many Faces of BARD will be offered to our patrons! Every second Thursday at 7:00 p.m. Eastern Time the program will cover one aspect of BARD (the Braille and Audio Reading Download) usage. Each program will start with a brief presentation, followed by a Q&A session about the presentation and BARD related questions for the remainder of the hour. At the end of each program, next month’s topic will be revealed.
