NORTH WEBSTER — No matter how old we are, we still enjoy coloring. Join us at the North Webster Community Public Library for a time of adult coloring at 11 a.m. Tuesday, Jan. 26. Release your inner artist and immerse yourself in a simpler, carefree time of childhood pleasures. A popular trend, adult coloring is an enjoyable way to relax and de-stress, provides a creative outlet, and stimulates the brain; plus it’s lots of fun especially with others. The library supplies the coloring sheets with beautiful designs and coloring supplies against a background of soothing music. The Adult Coloring session is free and no pre-registration is needed. Just come, relax, and enjoy.
Reading is another relaxing pleasure. Voyager Book Club meets at 10 a.m. Monday, Jan. 25, to discuss mystery books. In this book club everyone reads a book of their choice within a specified genre. Next month the group will be reading domestic fiction. If you’ve read a good mystery lately, bring it to Voyager on Monday and tell us about it.
Got a favorite recipe or a new one to share? Prepare a dish of your choice and share it at Revolving Recipe Round-Up at 5:30 p.m. Tuesday, Jan. 26. This group of foodies meets the last Tuesday of each month to explore different kinds of food and trade recipes. The library supplies the table service and free coffee and bottled water while participants provide the food and fun. If you like food and want to meet new friends, find both at Revolving Recipe Round-Up.
