Slow Food NYC Presents: The Art of Eating In

On Saturday Night, March 20th stay in with Slow Food NYC and Cathy Erway, author of The Art of Eating In: How I Learned to Stop Spending and Love the Stove , as she discusses the eco-conscious reasons for eating in, and how to fit cooking into your everyday schedule.  Cathy will demonstrate easy-to-make recipes from her book while we talk about ways to reduce waste and the volume of disposables in take-out food; edible and nutritious plants that you can forage for in parks; and how to throw dinner parties that are low-stress and low-effort for the host. We'll also be discussing the aftermath of the Week of Eating In challenge hosted by Huffington Post Green, which more than 1,000 people have pledged to do for the week of Feb 22-28. Come join the party and eat in with us!

Proceeds from this event will benefit the programs of Slow Food NYC.
