Gatherings, A Sharing of Tasteful and Playful Memories.  ...W03

Gatherings is the result of 2 years work by committees of volunteers from all aspects of the school community. It is more than a collection of recipes; it is a sharing of the family that is our school. 

This 294 page cookbook features recipes from the families, faculty and staff, and friends of the “Day School” over the past fifty-four years. The recipes are accompanied by quotes, poetry, and general observations about life from students, both past and present.  Months of collecting, correcting, testing, tasting, and proofreading recipes have ensured the quality and longevity necessary for sales not only to the school family but the general public.

Sections of the book cover all of the expected categories as well as a few surprises. A section for kids includes easy to make tasty treats and non-edible craft recipes. There is a section of recipes translated into Spanish. The “Family Gatherings” section includes menus, tips, and grocery lists. 

The whimsical color artwork, illustrating a variety of Day School gatherings, is by Carol DeMoss. Ms. DeMoss is a local artist and Director of the Brownsville Museum of Fine Art, acclaimed for her realistic paintings of rainforest and marine life scenes. Her artwork can be seen in public murals, graphic panels, illustrations in periodicals, and in private collections throughout the United States and Mexico. 

The heart and soul of the project is reflected in these words (page 8):

In all of our memories there is the poignancy of gatherings…

whether they be to celebrate or to mourn, to remember

or to honor, to comfort or to rejoice…

gatherings are the history of our hearts, spent with those we love.
