Party like it’s 2009

After two years of work & waiting, weeks of printing & finishing work, not to mention party planning, we have our launch party & show.(all photos courtesy of Jan Urestsky, except as marked)

The Portable Chef Uri Attia creates a lineup of sustainable delicacies, like ramp-parmesan frittata, pastured pork sausage, asparagus with ginger-soy-lime dipping sauce, local cheddar pate a choux, herbed spiced nuts, and a “the most ridiculously good chocolate cake of all time.” Did I mention all the plates, cups, platters & napkins were specially picked because they will easily biodegrade. Corn “plastic” cups anyone?




Yours truly.

Uri can barely keep up with the hungry masses.

A quite moment to peruse the book.

Sign O’ The Times


Our book signing at Barnes & Noble was a huge success, standing room only, and we almost sold all 90 odd books they had- time to order more I guess.

Marie C. Wilson, Founder and
President of The White House
Project spoke and introduced
four of our book subjects, who
then read their essays &
answered questions.









My editors Amy Sewell & Heather Ogilvie & I also spoke about the project.




Then, it was on to the book signing.
My first signature- with a pink pen no less.













Heather & I sign- she thinks of brilliant things to say, I try not to look like Tom Hanks.
