The From Scratch Club food swap back in Troy
The popular From Scratch Club food swap returns to the Oakwood Community Center in Troy this Sunday, October 11 with a both a swap and a visiting author.
Alana Chernila, whose cookbook The Homemade Kitchen is out this week, will be there for both a pre-swap food writing class, and a talk and Q&A during the swap. Blurbage for the class, "From the Plate to the Page: Eating, thinking, and writing with Alana Chernila":
Food is never just food. It's memory, family, love, loss, and everything in between. Come early to this weekend's food swap and join Alana for an inspirational workshop on translating tastes into words. Open to beginners and seasoned writers alike. Come hungry and ready to write. Bring a notebook.
The class is Sunday from 1-2:30 pm and it's $30 to attend ($50 with a copy Chernila's The Homemade Pantry). There's a sign up page on the From Scratch Club website.
The food swap is Sunday from 3-5 pm. Pre-registration is required, and there's a requested $2 donation at the door to help cover expenses. (And be sure to read through the swap guidelines at that first link above if this is your first time at the swap.)
Say Something!
We'd really like you to take part in the conversation here at All Over Albany. But we do have a few rules here. Don't worry, they're easy. The first: be kind. The second: treat everyone else with the same respect you'd like to see in return. Cool? Great, post away. Comments are moderated so it might take a little while for your comment to show up. Thanks for being patient.
