Time Table presents a Valentine’s cocktail party featuring aphrodisiac food and drink from the 1952 book, Venus in the Kitchen: Or Love’s Cookery Book. Come single or with a sweetie and spend some time sampling love potions of the early 50’s. We can’t make any promises on the power of these wacky concoctions—but we can promise a good time. Feel free to dress the part, though modern-day attire is just fine. Tickets are $5 each and can be purchased at WORD or through our website here.(Book purchase not required but books will be available for sale.)  With a menu like this, be sure not to miss it!
