Potluck Luncheon and 'Spice of Life' presentation

Wednesday, September 18, 2024, 11:30 am until 1:30 pm
Cummington Community House

Our next potluck luncheon will be on Wednesday, September 18th! Join us at 11:30 for appetizers. Meatloaf, mashed potatoes, green beans and more will be served at noon. If you can, bring a dessert or side dish to share. At 12:30, Registered Dietician and Nutritionist Brandon Walton from Highland Valley Elder Services will present “The Spices of Life.” Spices and herbs are what we use in the kitchen for flavor, but they also have important effects on our health. This presentation will go over three common spices – garlic, ginger and cinnamon -- and talk about the important health benefits they each offer. We will also look at the history of their uses. There will be a demonstration, and a tasting of ginger snap cookies for everyone!
