From kitchen to cookbook, with Clare de Boer — live

Join our Live video conversation tomorrow, March 13 as part of Grubstack, Substack’s first ever food festival

Hello Hello!

There’s fun ahead. Starting tomorrow and running through Saturday, there’ll be almost non-stop conversations with people who really know and love food. I’m excited because so many of my favorite Substackers are on the roster, including the crazy-talented Clare de Boer. I’ve been a Clare-fan since I met her at her first restaurant King, in NYC. Now, four sons, another restaurant, a fabulous Substack and a solo cookbook in the works, I get the chance to spend an hour chatting with Clare — and you!

We’ll be talking about how we cook and bake for work and for our families, how we write, how we create recipes and how we make cookbooks. In other words, we’ll be talking about almost everything we do.

We’ll be on tomorrow at 2:00 p.m. ET and it’s free, free, free! All the events are. And they all happen on Substack Live — happily, if you scroll down, you’ll find a how-to for watching on Live. I just had a tutorial and I’m glad to report that the whole thing is easy. Really.

Also, scroll down so that you can see the entire line-up.

Clare and I will be taking questions in real time, but if you’ve got some now, drop them in the comments and we’ll try to get to them.

Can’t wait to see you tomorrow.

This Thursday March 13 at 2:00 p.m. ET I'll be joined by
