What the Rice Salad Revealed

I was at a friend’s house last weekend and she was making a very delicious looking rice salad. I asked her where the recipe was from and when she showed me the cover of the book, I said, “We have that book at the Library”. She looked surprised and said, “You have cookbooks there?”I was stunned. I am not surprised when people don’t know we have museum passes, music CDs, DVDs, downloadable audio books and videotapes; but to think a library wouldn’t have cookbooks? We must be really failing in our publicity efforts. So, in case you were wondering, in addition to all the novels,we have bestsellers, new non-fiction, books on repairing your house, antiques, resumes, woodworking, interior design, all kinds of pets, throwing a family reunion, just about every kind of craft there is, sewing and knitting too, the history of the pencil, and yes, hundreds and hundreds of cookbooks too.
