Our annual Cook the Books event, an evening of delightful literary food and company, is approaching quickly! This year’s Cook the Books is scheduled for 5:00-8:00pm on Thursday Feb. 5, and we’re now looking for contributions of food and/or items for the silent auction (proceeds will go toward the GEA travel fund).
Auction items in the past have ranged from a tour of Robertson Davies’ collection of 19th century printing presses, a selection of attractive handmade jewelry, the composition and recording of a song on the topic of your choice, a variety of legendary jams and preserves, and even immortality (becoming a character in a novel).
We love to see edible literary allusions of all kinds, but for the sake of those with allergies we will be asking you to bring a list of ingredients along with your dish.
Please get in touch with Joel Faber (joel.faber[at]mail.utoronto.ca) or Chris Kelleher (christopher.kelleher[at]mail.utoronto.ca) to offer your contributions or with any questions you might have. We look forward to an entertaining and enjoyable evening together!
