Hello Michlib!

Last night BPL hosted a book talk for Classic Michigan Food & Drinks: The Stories Behind the Brands. Authors Gail Offen & Jon Milan were great! They are personable and engaging, eliciting laughs and comments from the audience. The event was very nicely attended with many folks staying after to chat or buy a copy of one of Gail & Jon's books. If you are looking for a fun yet informative program that dishes on some of Michigan's wonderful foods, this is it! Their fee was $150.00 (not sure if they charge mileage) and contact info is below. Please let me know if you have any questions
