Cool Idea of the Day: Rediscovered Bookshop's Baker's Dozen

Rediscovered Bookshop, Boise, Idaho, will co-host the Baker's Dozen, an event featuring 13 local authors reading from their work and serving up recipe cards for their favorite treats.

The Idaho Statesman reported that the genesis for the event was a conversation between Laura DeLaney, the bookstore's co-owner, and local writer T.L. Cooper, who were searching for "ways to pull the spotlight onto writers right here in the Treasure Valley. . . . something that invited more genres and lesser-known names to the table." The Baker's Dozen authors will offer their readers an irresistible combo platter of well-seasoned words as well as the secrets to tasty pecan vanilla horns, Roman punch, toffee bars and more.

"Authors will be invited to talk about their own recipes for writing" said DeLaney. "It's about expanding horizons. You might find something you didn't expect to like, the book you're not even looking for."
