Author, lecturer and gourmet cook Katie Barney Moose will be the speaker for the October 16 Brown Bag Lunch at the Easton Branch of the Talbot County Free Library. The program is free and open to the public.
Ms. Moose has developed a very interesting program for the War of 1812, discussing early food, herbs and history leading up to the War. Learn what was consumed during that time period, and how food was provided to the troops.
Ms. Moose is a descendant of the Clagett family of Maryland and old New England whaling families, and a member of the National Society of Colonial Dames of America. She has given lectures and cooking demonstrations on many parts of the world, including the Middle East, North Africa, the Chesapeake Bay region, the Pacific Northwest, French and British herbs, early American and Italian herbs, Latin America, Spices, Greece and Southeast Asia.
Ms. Moose has authored and co-authored many books about the Eastern Shore including Eastern Shore of Maryland: The Guidebook, Chesapeake’s Bounty and Chesapeake’s Bounty II. She is in the process of publishing an international cookbook covering every country around the world. This book will include the history of the cuisine of the countries, the dining etiquette, and recipes contributed by ambassadors, their chefs, and international friends. In addition, Ms. Moose is a consultant on international business and protocol.
This free program begins at noon and will last approximately one hour. Guests are invited to bring their lunch to eat during the program or just come to listen and learn. Coffee and sweets will be provided by the Friends of the Library, who sponsor the Brown Bag Lunch program.
