SUMMARY:Gilded Age Holiday Stories and Treats 
DESCRIPTION:Art\, Kids\, Seasonal/Special Events\, Tours\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIt was during the Gilded Age that many of the Christmas traditions still celebrated in America today first became part of mainstream culture. From sugar plums to plum pudding\, each recipe in The Gilded Age Christmas Cookbook offers a colorful glimpse into the era\, complete with the fascinating history behind each confection\, its ingredients\, and its preparation. \n\n\n\nThis program\, based on the book\, explores the holiday lore of the time—sharing the origins of beloved customs such as Santa Claus\, the Christmas tree\, and Christmas cards—alongside stories of Gilded Age holiday debutante parties\, teas\, and grand balls. Guests will have the opportunity to sample treats from the cookbook\, and copies of the book will be available for purchase. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nABOUT THE AUTHOR \n\n\n\n\n\nBecky Libourel Diamond is a food writer\, librarian\, and research historian.
