What better way to show friends you care than cooking for them in a way that acknowledges their health concerns? The thoughtful and considerate compadre always tries their best to make food everyone can enjoy – even when that means picking up a new skill or two. Austin Public Library’s culinary workshop focuses on mastering gluten-free, dairy-free, and vegetarian cooking this week, so no matter where you are on your cooking adventure, there’ll be something nice to learn here. – James Scott
