next week in NY

So I have a big week planned in New York next week and if you know of anyone who lives there, please pass on some info about the goings on...I will be assisting my friend Jamie Tiampo as he is guest chef at Google headquarters and after eating too much, then I will head over to the Astor Center where Doug Duda is having a fundraiser for us at the Astor Center for Wine and Spirits. Susan Spicer will be there, signing her new cookbook, Crescent City Cooking and dishes from her cookbook as well as some delicious wine and spirits will be available for the hungry. For tickets, you may visit http://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/31233 for tickets. So that's Tuesday. On Wednesday, I will be teaching a class at the Culinary Center at the Whole Foods in the Bowery. It will be about sugar and I'll have teach recipes for pralines, candied citrus peels and bourbon balls. So I'll be busy. Hope to see you there.
