Dinner @ 5:30PM, Discussion @ 7:30PM

Bestselling author Ann Hood brings her intricately-woven messages to anyone who has ever loved, lost and started over again from scratch. Her latest book Kitchen Yarns: Notes on Life, Love and Food, combines stories of Hood’s journey through life’s triumphs and tragedies, accompanied by recipes that somehow fit in perfectly with her insightful prose. She takes her audience from moments of joy (Gogo’s Meatballs) to coping with a painful divorce by teaching her young daughter to make the perfect omelet. Hood is the author of nine previous books, including Comfort: A Journey Through Grief and The Knitting Circle. This event will nourish both body and soul.
