PEUGEOT! From 1810 to the Present Day
Presented by Jennifer Malpass
The company began with saws and crinolines which were forerunners of bicycle spokes, and advanced into the penny farthing and autos! They manufactured salt and pepper shakers you can still buy today!
The cars began with a steam powered car and evolved into the racing cars and electric cars of today!
Zoom links are reserved for AF DuPage members and will be sent out the day before the session.

Tarte Tatin
Of all the iconic French dishes, Tarte Tatin holds a special place in the hearts (and tummies) of many gastronomes. What’s not to like? The recipe features an upside-down version of an apple pie,
with baked apples, buttery puff pastry crust held together with a caramelly sauce.
Join Chef Chris Thielman and Karen Thielman online for a tutorial on how to prepare this classic dessert.
