Cooking Classes

Week of April 17, 2021

Kathleen Flinn is a French-trained chef and internationally bestselling author, teacher and speaker best known for a series of acclaimed food memoirs starting with The New York Times bestseller The Sharper Your Knife, the Less You Cry (Viking/Penguin Random House).

Her acclaimed follow-up, The Kitchen Counter Cooking School, was named 2012 Book of the Year by the American Society of Journalists & Authors (ASJA). The Japanese adaptation of that book, imaginatively titled as Miracle Cooking Lessons for Bad Women, became a sensation in Japan when it debuted in early 2017.

Flinn’s goal in life is to encourage everyone to be more confident in their kitchens. As Publisher’s Weekly noted, “Like Julia Child before her, Flinn aims to demystify rarefied culinary know-how and bring basic cooking lessons to the simplest level.”

Her award-winning podcast, Hungry for Words, features in-depth conversations with some of the most notable people writing about food. You can find it at hungryforwords.show or wherever you listen to podcasts. Learn more and get plenty of recipes at kathleenflinn.com

Your Life in Six Words
With so much upheaval in the past year, it can be difficult to focus on what lies at the heart of who we are and where we want to go in our life’s journey. Developed in 2006 by writer Larry Smith, the six-word memoir format has prompted tens of thousands to craft micro autobiographies, with the most extraordinary curated into three best-selling books and featured in The New Yorker and NPR. In this session, we will work through this remarkable process to craft your own short life story as a tool for self-discovery and to distill what’s important to you. The goal is to create a memoir that helps you confirm or reconsider your life’s path, or perhaps provide inspiration for what might be next. Note: writing talent not required.
