Tasting By The Book planning begins tomorrow night (Wednesday, March 9, 7 PM)!
March 8, 2016
SAVE THE DATE! On Saturday evening, October 22, TASTING BY THE BOOK at the Abington Community Library will provide the opportunity to mingle with friends old and new. Attend this signature event and sample delicious food and beverages, then bid on your favorite items to enjoy at a later date.
On Wednesday, March 9 at 7 PM the Chairs will be organizing committees and cooks for the event. Do you have a specialty soup, salad, appetizer, entree, or dessert that is well known among family and friends and is a must make for any event you host or attend? Please help us as we begin planning by nominating yourself to be one of our featured Community Cooks for the evening. Community Cooks must be prepared to donate bite-sized samples for 150 people of their specialty. They must also be prepared to provide a quantity (their choice, e.g. a tray of lasagna, 3 dozen cookies, or a gallon of soup) of the same item, to the highest bidder, between Oct. 2016 – Sept. 2017 at a mutually agreed upon date. Community Cooks will receive one free ticket to the event (value $25). Tasting cups, napkins, forks, table clothes, and decorations will all be provided.
If you are interested in becoming a Tasting by the Book Community Cook or committee volunteer, please attend the meeting on March 9th at 7 PM or contact Amanda Sheptak at asheptak@yahoo.com / 570-357-6205 or Angela Weinberg angmoon23@yahoo.com / 570-499-4505. All proceeds benefit the Abington Community Library.
