5:00pm : Creating a Perfect Charcuterie Board
Charcuterie (shahr-koo-tuh–ree) : Any excuse will do to make big or small charcuterie boards, whether for casual Sunday afternoon snacking, book club get-togethers, or holiday entertaining. They're quick and easy to throw together with little to no cooking required, and they are so fun! The term "charcuterie" refers to the preparing of cured meats, like prosciutto, bacon, salami, etc., but these days when people say charcuterie, they are usually referring to a fun board that typically includes cured meats, a variety of cheeses, crackers, nuts, fruits and vegetables, and dipping sauces or spreads. Let the folks at Two Cheezy Guyz guide you through the process of creating your own perfect charcuterie board. There is a $20 fee for this workshop to cover food and materials

7:00pm : Five Weeks in South America
Amy Buse, a retired Ferris Professor, has been traveling again - this time to South America! "The journey began in Quito, Ecuador, including a trip to the equator and an 8-day cruise in the Galapagos Islands. We saw so many animals, including giant tortoises, sea turtles, sea lions, the famous bluefooted boobie, whales, five kinds of iguanas, and so many more." Then on to Peru: "We started in Iquitos, then the Amazon Jungle, the Sacred Valley, ending in Lima. The Sacred Valley offered so much history. We saw Incan ruins, salt mines, and the Moray Circle Terraces, and hiked the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu and Rainbow Mountain. In the Amazon Jungle we saw several animals, including five kinds of monkeys, sloths, capybaras, river otters, caimans, parrots, so many birds, giant tarantulas, and piranhas." Join Amy to see pictures and hear stories regarding the trip, especially walking the Inca Trail, and to find out if the trip included paragliding
