The Savvy Palates, powered by the food historian and well-known local cook Sandy Garson, of Bath, will be at the Patten Free Library at 3 p.m. Friday to talk about the “Secrets of Supper.”
“Secrets of Supper” focuses on “the fen shui of dinner,” or why the most important consideration of what to eat should be place, season and time of day to fuel your body with clean energy. The talk will focus on cultures that have specific dishes for specific times of the year, like the special Mediterranean olive oil dishes for summer and Christmas baking with spices that warm the body.
The one-hour talk with visuals, handouts and a chance for discussion will be in the library’s Community Room. It’s free to all attendees. Star Pelsue of Portland does the visual presentation and Gael McKibben of Portland offers handouts while Sandy Garson presents the talk.

We believe it’s important to offer commenting on certain stories as a benefit to our readers. At its best, our comments sections can be a productive platform for readers to engage with our journalism, offer thoughts on coverage and issues, and drive conversation in a respectful, solutions-based way. It’s a form of open discourse that can be useful to our community, public officials, journalists and others. Read more...
We do not enable comments on everything — exceptions include most crime stories, and coverage involving personal tragedy or sensitive issues that invite personal attacks instead of thoughtful discussion.
For those stories that we do enable discussion, our system may hold up comments pending the approval of a moderator for several reasons, including possible violation of our guidelines. As the Maine Trust’s digital team reviews these comments, we ask for patience.
Comments are managed by our staff during regular business hours Monday through Friday and limited hours on Saturday and Sunday. Comments held for moderation outside of those hours may take longer to approve.
By joining the conversation, you are agreeing to our commenting policy and terms of use. More information is found on our FAQs.
