Mums & Spices 2 Book Launch
On December 15th, our Mums' Group will be launching their second cookbook, Mums & Spices 2, as well as a related calendar! We will gather at the South Leith Parish Church from 4-5 pm to celebrate and try some of the food from the book. Copies of the book and calendar will be available for sale at the venue. Please register to attend at our Eventbrite. The venue has limited capacity so spots are booked on a first come, first served basis.

We wish everyone celebrating Diwali a time of light, love, and warmth. May the lamps of Diwali glow long into the year for you!
