May 27, 4:00pm, Cooking the Book — Join us for our second cookbook.  The cooks select one recipe from the same cookbook to make and share. This month the cookbook will be The Confederacy of Dunces Cookbook by Cynthia LeJeune Nobles. We will gather to share our cooking and thoughts about the recipes. Stop by the library to select a recipe.   You do not need to cook to participate, but please let the librarian know that you will be attending so that the cooks make enough!

Wild Flowers at the Library

Beginning in May, there will be an ongoing and constantly changing wildflower table in the library.  The table will display wildflowers in bloom in the Peacham area.  The exhibit will draw upon the knowledge of Joan Churchill, longtime Peacham resident and wildflower enthusiast, for identification and historical comment.  For more information, or if you are interested in helping with this project, please contact the library, Kalanani Gallas or Ken Kraus.
