7:00 pm Calpurnia's Favorites Location: Maceys' Little Theatre
Well, it may not be "lite" food, but nothing says good ol' home cookin' like fried pork chops, ambrosia, and cracklin' bread. Another fantastic dinner to introduce your family to this uniquely American cooking style, and a great way to participate in the Big Read.
