Summer is about getting out there and enjoying.  Fabulous food does not need to be sacrificed to relaxing with family and friends.  Sign up for the free cooking class "Packets & Picnics" with Linda Welty and learn how to make your fixings ahead of time so you can enjoy your time off.  Easy, no fuss recipes include but are not limited to: Texas chicken packets, bread pudding, veggie salad, French cheeseburger loaf, turtle tart, & watermelon soda.  Linda will have samples available for you to taste.  Sign up is required as there is limited room for 25 students.  Please call the library today at 920-787-2988.
