For all of those readers in the Connecticut area, I will be taking part in a fundraiser for Gateway Community College in New Haven. This ticketed event (don’t worry, there are still some left!) will be a lecture/demo all about everyone’s favorite fall dessert– PIE!

The event supports Gateway’s Culinary Arts program. Last year, I started working at Gateway, teaching a small-batch baking course. It’s a wonderful place to be, with so many students eager to learn; so I was thrilled to be a part of this fundraiser.

The event starts at 6 PM. I will be making a few pies from my book, and will be answering any questions about the pie-making process that audience members may have. All ticket-holders will go home with a signed copy of my book, and a pie baked for them especially by Gateway students. Oh! and of course there will be pie to samples throughout the course of the evening.

Come on down Wednesday evening to do one of my favorite things– talk pie!
