Spend an uplifting evening with Samin Nosrat as she discusses her new book, GOOD THINGS. Samin will share stories around the inspiration for the cookbook, her development and selection of the recipes, and the culinary rituals she shares with close friends. In an evening about creativity and connection, Samin will remind us how cooking can not only nourish our bodies but also satiate our desire for kinship and community.

Samin will be interviewed by Tim Mazurek, the creator of Lottie + Doof, an award-winning food blog that he has run since 2008. Tim has worked as a freelance writer, recipe developer, instructor, recipe tester, and photographer, and has contributed to several cookbooks. He earned his MFA from Northwestern University in the department of Art Theory and Practice, and lives in Oak Park, Illinois with his husband and about 400 cookbooks.
