By Joanne Winer Things have been moving along re- cently, and the Celia’s Rainbow Gar- dens Cookbook is now in production and should be here in a few more weeks!! The cookbook will be a ben- efi t for the Gardens, and will be on sale at several locations in town, and of course, at Reader’s Oasis Bookstore. The printing company plans to send several cases in advance of the whole order so we will have them in time for the annual Party in the Park, (March 19th) and at the bookstore. We are also now taking mail orders for the cookbook at the store, and will mail them priority post as soon as they come in for those people who have to leave before the shipment gets here. Order forms are at the bookstore. Cost of the book is $15.00 each (240 pages with full color pictures through- out) and if you want them mailed, it is $4.95 each for priority fl at rate. This book turned out really great, and the company I am dealing with has been very helpful and will get it done as soon as possible. We are very excited by the response to it, and can’t wait to see it!! It is fi lled with hun- dreds of recipes from friends, neigh- bors, snowbirds and family, and lots of special features about Celia and the Gardens. I had a lot of fun (and frustration) doing it, but am really pleased with the end result, and I hope that everyone else likes it as much as I did.
