Sherry presented many wartime recipes together with samples of bread, cakes and jams.

She also showed an extensive display of cookery books and posters, which prompted lots of members to relate stories of their own experiences during the 1940s.

Committee members had all made great efforts to turn out in their own 1940s outfits, which added to the atmosphere.
