I'm on my book tour this week, so I hope to see you at one of my appearances! Last month, I celebrated the launch of this milestone book, at Jean-Georges Vongerichten's new Midtown restaurant, 425. The event kicked off this year's New York Wine and food Festival. Hosted by Chef Jean-Georges and Lee Brian Schrager, Festival Founder and Director, guests were treated to a menu inspired by my book as well as some of Jean-Georges' own exquisite dishes. Later that week, Chef Daniel Boulud and I hosted a brunch at Tiffany's Blue Box Café, where I personally signed more than 50 books before sharing a wonderful three-course meal. You may have seen photos of both events on my Instagram page @MarthaStewart48. Please get a copy of my book. "Martha, The Cookbook: 100 Favorite Recipes, with Lessons and Stories from My Kitchen," is a collection of 100 of my most treasured recipes and tips, along with photos from my personal archives and the stories behind them. I am very proud of this book. It's the one I know you'll want to read cover to cover.
Enjoy some of these celebratory photos.
I’m currently on a book tour for my 100th book. I hope you’ve signed up for one of these events. I’ll also be sure to share some photos.
Last month, I enjoyed a very special party on the top floor of 425 Park Avenue to celebrate “Martha: The Cookbook: 100 Favorite Recipes with Lessons and Stories from My Kitchen.” The party was hosted by Chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten and the Bank of America. So many people attended – devotees, food enthusiasts, colleagues, and friends.
Here I am with Chef Daniel Boulud and his wife, Katherine Gage Boulud.
And here’s a photo of me and Chef Jean-Georges.
During the reception, bites inspired by my book were served. These are puff pastry cheese straws.
And these are called gougères. A gougere in French cuisine is a baked savory choux pastry made of choux dough and mixed with cheese. These are always a big hit at my own parties.
Here I am with Chef Jean-Georges and Lee Schrager.
Also in attendance, restaurateur Drew Nieporent.
Lisa Wagner was part of a small team that helped me with this 100th book. Lisa and I have known each other for many years. She was an original member of my creative team for the Martha Stewart Living Magazine.
Here I am with Chefs Jean-George and Daniel Boulud.
Business entrepreneur Roy Tin also stopped by the event.
And look who else… none other than my dear friend, Snoop Dogg!
Who do you think got the best snapshot of us?
It was a fun evening and the best way to launch this year’s New York Wine and Food Festival and to celebrate my book! Be sure to get a copy!
Later that same week, I hosted a brunch with Chef Daniel Boulud at the legendary Blue Box, the charming and elegant Daniel Boulud-run café inside Tiffany’s Fifth Avenue flagship store. Here I am with our own Thomas Joseph and Kevin Sharkey.
It was good to see Chef Jean-George at this event too.
Tables were set with the iconic “Tiffany blue” colored plates.
And here I am with my longtime publicist and friend, Susan Magrino. It was a marathon week of celebrations for my book, and we’re still going strong.
Get tickets to see me at these book tour events. I started in Boston and am in Long Island, New York City, and Charleston, South Carolina.
