Cooking Vlogs!

Mulvane Public Library Posted on by

Hey all! We have been missing our cooking classes at our library, but we know right now, it is best to be practicing safety.  We will hopefully get everyone rescheduled and new classes booked soon!  In the meantime, Maggie has enjoyed these cooking vlogs the past couple of weeks.  Hopefully, you will too!

Tabitha Brown

She is a vegan chef that has fantastic recipes, and her voice is super comforting!  She has a very loving personality and brings exciting twists to her vegan cuisine.

Also on TikTok!

Nicole the Nomad 

This foodie is super fun to watch!  She is energetic and has incredible recipes.  I tried her Mac n’ Cheese, and it was delicious.  She also does Disney copycat recipes.

EmmyMadeinJapan 

I don’t think she comes up with her recipes, but she makes and tries a variety of food and candy from all over the world and gives her honest opinion on them.  She is fantastic at describing the taste and texture of the food she eats and does a great job of explaining her steps while cooking.

Christian Paul Headley

I have watched him mainly on TikTok, but he also has an Instagram.  Based out of Atlanta, he makes the prettiest looking chocolates and desserts. (And I bet they are delicious too!)  They are real works of art.  You should definitely check his Instagram and TikTok out!

There are plenty of other Vlogs that show quick tutorials on food; these are just a few of Maggie’s current favorites!  Have you guys tried any new recipes lately?

Speaking of food, did you know the Wichita area has a restaurant guide group on Facebook?  It was created at the start of COVID-19 to help advertise and support small local restaurants.  It is a great resource to use when you just don’t know where to eat.  Wichita Food and Booze Public Group

Another useful resource is Wichita by E.B.  They have also spotlighted some of Mulvane’s restaurant gems too, including Luciano’s and Lil’ Deuce Scoop!

One of the roles of the public library is to provide materials that cover and educate people on current happenings in our world and our community, and to help spread the voices of everyone. Here are reading lists that we hope will spark productive discussion and understanding. Many of the titles can be found through our KanShare Consortium or on our Libby and RB Digital Apps.
