The October meeting: What Can I Bring? by Elizabeth Heiskell
From the description: It is usually the first question you ask after receiving an invitation to a gathering or event: "What Can I Bring?" Based on the popular monthly feature in Southern Living magazine, Elizabeth delivers more than 100 delicious recipes that are sure to please a crowd that can all be prepared in advance and travel well.
But let's not forget the most important question: What can I bring to my own table? This is a cookbook that offers answers whether you're looking for some new ideas for dinner or want to make Sunday brunch a more special event. Above all, these delicious dishes can be served straight from the heart, with no stress required.
Tasty Venues will have a limited number of copies available for purchase if you'd like to pick one up when you come for lunch, dinner, tea, or just to shop.
