About this event
The Gilded Age Christmas Cookbook features the fascinating history behind each confection, its ingredients and baking methods. In this talk based on the book, author Becky Libourel Diamond will touch on holiday lore of the time, with backstories of now-ubiquitous Christmas customs such as Santa Claus, the Christmas tree and Christmas cards, interspersed with tales of Gilded Age Hanukkah and New Year’s celebrations, holiday debutante parties, teas, and grand balls. Participants will be able to get a true taste of the Gilded Age, including a tasting of holiday cookies from the era.
This lecture will include ASL Interpretation
