PBL Cookbooks available NOW

From cooking in the classroom to cooking in the bookstore!

Members of Phi Beta Lambda had put together a cookbook in this last year with many creative folks in our club donating recipes to this nicely bound, wonderfully decorated book ranging from breads to candies, dinners to desserts, this thing has it all...well, a lot to say the least!

For quite some time, this cookbook was only available through a PBL club member or by visiting the PBL advisor's office. Well no longer! For a limited time, you can find our cookbook, "Cooking In The Classroom" at the local Walla Walla Hastings Entertainment store for a modest $11.99!

This cookbook features more than just the classy cover shown here and the beautiful inserts but also a picture of our class and list of students that made this book possible as well as what a person really wants in a cookbook- FOOD RECIPES! You will soon be making appetizers and beverages, soups and salads, veggies and side dishes, main dishes, Breads and rolls, desserts, cookies and candies and MORE! The ten pages of cookies and candies alone will keep you occupied for days, creating masterpiece upon masterpiece that your family and friends will enjoy...if you decide to share!

Congratulations PBL for the creation of this amazing book, you are a club that makes things happen and this is a perfect shining example of that!

To all of you bakers out there, remember, supplies are limited so if you want to have a rare opportunity to see some famous candy recipes not shared anywhere else, hit Hastings Entertainment and tell them you want your copy of the PBL cookbook, Cooking From The Classroom for only $11.99!
