Enjoy a Taste of Home

-- — If you’ve never attended the Taste of Home Cooking School, well, then, you don’t know what you’ve been missing.

Fortunately, if you’ve never been to one of these fantastic demonstrations of cooking tips, great food, recipes and fantastic giveaways, you’re in luck.

The Valdosta Daily Times, Publix and Home Depot are proud to present the Taste of Home Cooking School once again this week.

On Thursday evening, March 21, a professional Taste of Home chef will create nearly a dozen mouth-watering recipes, from entrees to sides to desserts. Lucky winners will get the chance to take these creations home with them.

Throughout the evening, area businesses provide items to be given away to selected winners.

Audience members can also help feed the region’s hungry. Bringing a canned-food item for America’s Second Harvest of South Georgia enters participants for a chance at a special door prize.

It’s a full evening that can fill minds with new ways to fill families’ bellies.

  • Thumbs up, thumbs down

    THUMBS UP: To Dr. John Gaston, retiring dean of Valdosta State University’s College of the Arts. For the past 10-plus years, Gaston has worked to build a more interconnected program with various artistic and communications departments working together. Given that you are likely to see one College of the Arts department collaborating with another during events is proof of Gaston’s success.

  • Thumbs up

    THUMBS UP: To mail workers, volunteers and food bank staff for gathering food for the annual Stamp Out Hunger postal food drive today. A plastic bag designated for canned goods and other non-perishable food items should have arrived in your mailbox earlier this week. If you haven’t already, take a few moments to fill the bag with food and hang from your mailbox. If you didn’t receive the special Stamp Out Hunger bag, any plastic bag filled with food will do. This food drive helps feed thousands of South Georgians annually. Valdosta-Lowndes County often donates more food than nearly all other cities and counties in Georgia.
