It’s not just about cooking, it’s about crafting an event and a space where people feel really comfortable. That really comes across in the cookbook. That joy of giving to someone else, I think, is what I’m all about. There’s four party sections about bringing your friends together, and cooking together. That’s what I tried to do in my cookbook, as well. But it really was about getting your buddies together, and cooking together, and just hanging all night, not even thinking about the traditions of turkey and mashed potatoes.
