•100 Potlucks Cookbook
The Friends of Ibrahim cookbook, 100 Potlucks , has been published.  Many thanks to all the Friends who contributed recipes, photographs, advice, and time to make it happen.  The book has 120 pages and 186 recipes.  It is a wonderful collection of recipes that any cook would enjoy having.  And, it would make a delightful gift for your friends and family.  Read the review in Lake Magazine.
A donation of $20 to the Rose Garden Fund is required for each copy, for the support of Ibrahim's continuing defense effort.
There are three ways to obtain the cookbook.
    1. You can place an order on-line on the Gift page of this website via PayPal's secure site.  A $5.00 shipping and handling fee will be charged for each book sent to you.
    2. You can print the order form , fill out the order & shipping information, and send the form and a check made out to The Rose Garden.  Your order will be shipped within a few days.
    3. You can pick up copies at Cafe Gulistan.  Cash or check only at the restaurant, please, as we're not set up for credit card donations there, and need to keep restaurant business separate from Rose Garden donations. Enjoy!
