Hi everybody,

Looking for you wordsmiths with catchy titles. We're launching a new
program here at our library starting next month where we are having patrons
read books in a certain theme, every book read in the theme gets you in a
drawing for a prize related to the theme. April's theme is food, the prize
will be a restaurant gift certificate. Now, the problem is, my clerk and I
(we are the display people around here) can't come up with a catchy theme
name. Since these will be both fiction and non-fiction, we want a wide
name. At the moment, we have "Food For Thought" but we were hoping to come
up with something a little better. I have the book lists together, just need
a catchy title. :-)

Any help you can give us would be greatly appreciated.

Tasteful Reading
Can Too Many Books Spoil the Broth?

The Sylvia Beach Hotel in Newport, OR is a book themed B&B (all the rooms
are named and decorated for different authors; the Agatha Chritie Room is
always booked a year in advance, but my young nephews like the pendulum
swinging over the beds in the Edgar Alan Poe room).

Kelly -

You asked for suggestions - so here are a few off the top of my head:

Fabulous Food For Thought

Gastronomical Galaxies

A Soupçon of Singular Selections

Snack, Munch, Nibble & Nosh Your Way Through Our Book Buffet

Bountiful Buffet of Books

Food, Glorious Food - Books, Glorious Books (Based on the song title: Food -
Glorious Food)

The Joy of Reading (After the Joy of Cooking)

Think Low Calorie: Don't Eat It - Read It!

Three Rivers Book Buffet

Several of the above are spin-offs of actual cookbook titles.

I guess that's it for now.

theme this year is "Feed Your Need to Read" and the resource guide is full
of slogans to use as tie-ins for the program.
