A bad, bad blogger that's what I am. So much work, so little time. So, where to start? I guess there's no point in talking about events that have come and gone so here's some upcoming events.
Our book club, Whitehall Reads, will be meeting to discuss Mary MacLane's book "The Story of Mary MacLane" February 22nd, 6:30 at the library. "The Story of Mary MacLane" was 20 year old Mary's diary and after its publication she became known as "The Wild Woman of Butte!" The diary revealed her innermost thoughts about her sexuality and how much she hated Butte, things one just didn't talk about in those days. The books sold 80,000 copies in the first month, something quite unheard of in 1902. Here's a link to a Wikipedia entry about her and a review of the book at the Montana Historical Society.
On March 17th, St. Patrick's Day at 2:00, we will be having Molly Kruckenberg with the Montana Historical Society present "A Taste of Montana: A history of cookbooks and cooking in Montana." "The history of food and cooking in Montana is as old and varied as the human occupation of the state, and cookbooks provide a window into this transient artform. Weaving together changes in food preparation and technology with the correlating changes in cookbooks, this program shows how cookbooks can be used to explore social and cultural changes in our history. Using illustrations from historic cookbooks, A Taste of Montana provides a delicious way to rediscover the past." Irish soda bread and tea will be served.
