Not just a cookbook!

What a wonderful time we had with Mairlyn Smith yesterday afternoon. The self-proclaimed “Queen of Fibre” has decreed that we must eat ONE apple a day among other helpful healthy living tips in her thoughtful, informative and hilarious presentation.

Mairlyn’s newest cookbook is not just a cookbook, it is a guide for healthy living with many fantastically funny anecdotes, luscious photography and incredible recipes to bring more Peace, Love & Fibre in to all of our lives.

We had so much fun catching up with her as she was a frequent attendee of Presteign-Woodbine United Church and missed seeing many of us.

We sold out of all the books she brought, around 50 of them and we have started a waiting list at the special discounted price for those who would like an extra copy or didn’t get one . Let Michele Petick know if you would like to be added to the list. Mairlyn will order them and it will take a couple of weeks to arrive.

Much thanks to Mairlyn Smith for taking time out of a busy weekend to be with us. And thank you to everyone who attended the event, and to all the volunteers from the Abundant Hospitality Committee and beyond who made this a very special event with greeting, emceeing, and baking special treat recipes to serve the guests from Mairlyn’s cookbook Peace, Love & Fibre, thank you, thank you, thank you!

Mairlyn promises to come back to Leaside United Church soon and sit in the pews with us and hopes you are going to start taking those “special” walks at night after dinner (you all know what that means right?!).
