If We Can Do It, You Can

Help us make the 2009 Books2Eat at Grove Family the best ever! The event has drawn more than 50 different families, librarians, bakers, students, and caterers to create their entries. Don't worry! The entries can be as basic or as elaborate as you want to make them. Every entry was enjoyed in the 2 previous years. Check out our slide show at the right to see the 2007 and 2008 entries for ideas. Then let your culinary imagination fly!

I'm available to help you plan your Books2Eat entry

Hi all:

I'm the unofficial artist in residence at Grove Library, and would be thrilled to help you plan your entry for Books2Eat. Need an idea? I've got lots of both easy and elaborate titles you could use. Have an idea but not sure of how to do it? Email me, and I'll share methods and recipes. I am an experienced food artist, having worked with everything from chocolate clay to gum paste to sugar art to sculpting with gingerbread and cheese. We've got pictures of past entries to help you get inspired. Please call or email, as I would love to hear from you -- half the fun is in the planning... --Carol
