Cooking

Williams-Sonoma Vegetable (in fact, we

have the entire Williams-Sonoma cook-

book collection at our library.)

Eat Greens by Scott-Goodman &

Trovato

We have BOTH Pioneer Woman

cookbooks. Ok, so they’re not

really healthy, but they have

some YUMMY recipes!

So happy cooking and here’s to a new and healthy year!

Catie Newby Editor

It’s that time again! Time for new begin-

nings! Time to refresh and make some new

goals! According to www.tiptoptens.com the

top New Year’s Resolutions are:

10. Be Proactive

9. Quit Smoking

8. Get a Promotion at Work

7. Pay Debts

6. Stop Gambling

5. Reduce Stress

4. Exercise More

3. Be Healthy

2. Save Money

1. Lose Weight (we all knew this would be #1, right?)

So to help with a few of those, here are a

few great cookbooks you might want to try!

SUPPORT YOUR LIBRARY! If you already shop or purchase gas at Kwik Trip, you’re half-way to supporting our

library.

It’s an easy program. Simply purchase the Kwik

Trip cards at the library for $50 or $100 (face

value) and Kwik Trip gives 10% of proceeds to our

library. That’s a great deal! And there’s no extra

cost to you!

A good portion of our funding comes from the com-

munity here in the North Freedom area. Throughout the year we have books sales

and bake sales and the Kwik Trip card program is just one more opportunity to give

a little something back to our library.

Where does the money go? Among other things:

materials

maintenance

and just plain keeping our library in business!

Thank you in advance for your support!!

Loved It! I’m buying the T-shirt!

Liked It. I’ll tell a few friends about it.

Didn’t like it. Makes great background noise.

Hated it. Would rather wash my hair.

I could watch this with my Grandma.
