Hawkins House Guided Tour: A Victorian Culinary Christmas
|
You are invited to slip away into the past and experience a recreation of some of the Christmas culinary traditions of yesterday in a new exhibit, A Victorian Culinary Christmas, on display in our historic Hawkins House. The guided tour of this special exhibition will be open Saturday, December 5 through Saturday, January 2, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
For many families, the celebration of Christmas would not be complete without a feast and a selection of seasonal sweet and salty treats. Many of the foods and food related activities we associate with Christmas today, as well as some that have been lost over time, were being enjoyed by folks in our community over a century ago. The Hawkins House tour is designed to exhibit examples of family food traditions and holiday decorations popular at the turn-of-the-twentieth century in the Ozarks. The house will be decorated in traditional pine boughs and holly, old fashioned toys and of course a Christmas tree trimmed with a popcorn and cranberry garland. Stepping back in time, Mrs. Hawkins’ kitchen, her cooking methods and some of her Christmas menu choices may still be familiar to us. However, who today would consider for an entrée the now extinct passenger pigeon with chestnut stuffing or a side-dish of sweet pickled crabapples? In accordance with the City of Rogers COVID –19 policy, acceptable face coverings are required to be worn during your visit and tour group size will be limited to allow for social distancing. |
