Here in the Boston area, on Wednesday, December 10, 6-7 PM at the Coolidge Corner Theatre in Brookline, MA. This will be followed by books signings across the street at the Brookline Booksmith. You will need to reserve tickets by calling 617-566-6660 or by emailing events@brooklinebooksmith.com.
As you may know, America’s Test Kitchen is a long-running cooking show on PBS, from the editors of Cook’s Illustrated magazine. In the pic, left to right: Jack Bishop of the Tasting Lab, Adam Ried of the Equipment Corner, Chris Kimball, show host and founder of Cook’s, Julia Collin-Davison and Bridget Lancaster, on-air test kitchen chefs.
The last time I went to one of their events, only Chris and Adam were there. I got both of their autographs on books. I got to talk to Adam a little bit, he was really nice. I have actually bought a lot of my kitchen stuff based on his recommendations on the show and in the magazine, and have never been disappointed. he was very happy to hear from a veiwer/reader that he was doing a good job.
This time, I hope that everybody will be there…we shall see!
The only thing is that I have to take the T to get there, and I have to go alone, because Mike has to work. For some reason, I am one of those freak and weirdo magnets…loser guys who try to hit on me, even though I show them my wedding rings and tell them flat out that I’m married and therefore not interested. One guy actually asked me why my husband would “let” me go out alone. What a jerk! Even if I were single, I would not be interested in any of these morons. Why would I want a guy who thinks that a wife needs permission to go anywhere or do anything? But somehow, guys like this think that being in charge of their women makes them more “manly”. I think it just makes them stupid.
I’m still going to go anyway, weird guys on the train/bus or not. But Mike can come to the T station and pick me up, so I don’t have to sit there with the weirdos and wait for the bus to get home. He’ll be home by then. I just need to make sur he remembers to turn his phone on so that I can call and let him know when I’ll be on my way.
Anyhoo, I am looking forward to this event!
