The Main Library will be closed on Monday, January 19 for Martin Luther King Jr. Day. 

Food for Talk is a book group for anyone interested in cooking!  

If reading about food, experimenting with new recipes and learning from other cooks sounds fun, sign up and join us on the second Sunday of every month at 3pm! Locations vary.

How to Join:

It's as easy as 1, 2, 3...
1. Register with Barbara Shatara bshatara@burlingtonvt.gov
2. Pick up a copy of the book from the Library's Main Desk. 
3. Read it, make a dish (not required though) and bring it to the discussion at 3 pm.
