What's Cooking! 2024

This year the cookbook club will explore foods from around the world. Each month will focus on a different region/country. There will be books requested to have at Pepin for patrons to check out or you can choose your own title. This list features titles that highlight the region we will be enjoying. These regions also compliment many of the books chosen for the ChitChat Book Club that meets monthly. What's Cooking! meets on the second Saturday of each month at 11:30 am for a potluck and discussion of the books and recipes chosen. All cooks, foodies and people who like to eat are welcome to attend.
