A Note on our February Book

As our book next week focuses on food of an earlier generation, I would like to add, please be thinking of some of the foodways or regional cookery that you grew up with, or that perhaps you miss, if it is not readily available here. And what you find strange or wonderful or strange AND wonderful about Southern foodways. We’ll go around the room and savor each other’s stories, and get to know each other better. Thanks!

p.s. I’m bringing Brunswick stew from a recipe of my native Virginia.

Blog Reader Request




Someone in cyberspace wanted to see pictures of the Beaufort Book Club. The only one saved on my computer is from our Christmas gathering. So, folks, here we are!

Please understand that the composition of our group changes from meeting to meeting. We are a book club that is freely open to the public, so people attend if they are interested in the subject of the book under discussion.

Food of a Younger Land


I hope you are enjoying our February selection. It has already created lively discussion as readers have dropped by the library! Remember that our meeting is Thursday, January 18 in the Children's Program Room.
I have been asked if attendees can bring a sample of a favorite recipe from the book. Of course, but please don't feel that you must bring something.
