Hope to see you on the SF Bay Area portion of the tour! Also, VERY much looking forward to Dorie’s Cookies.
Thank you! I’m so looking forward to the SF Bay Area part of my tour – love your part of the country!
Boooooooooo for no Toronto 🙁 I’ll keep an eye on the dates etc… to see if I might catch you somewhere XO
I so wanted to go to Toronto but it didn’t work out – not that I’ve given up trying …
Greetings Dorie,
Could you please assist with updated your information? Just needs the dates and times for the COOKIE Cities that are confirmed.
Many thanks,
Millette
Done!
Please come to the South Florida area!!!!
If only. I’m not going south at all this time and it makes me sad. Thanks for the invitation – xo
Please come to Dallas Texas!
Maybe, maybe in the spring, but Texas is not on this leg of the tour 🙁 xo
Oklahoma City would be in heaven if you dropped by!
I was Oklahoma City when I toured with Around My French Table and I the surprise of my life: The Governor made that day Dorie Greenspan Day! It was fabulous and it was thanks to Chef John Bennett and his friends. Sadly, it just wasn’t possible to put Oklahoma City on the tour this time – xo
More stops out West–like Salt Lake City! <3
I have never been to Salt Lake City and I’d love to come. One day. I hope – xo
I hope you can someday, too. There’s a lot of us out here that love you and your books and COOKIES! 😉
Hi Dorie,
Have you thought about coming to Texas? Central Market welcomes cookbook authors and chefs at their stores and cooking classes in Austin, Dallas, Houston and San Antonio. Hope to see you!
Victoria
I have been to Central Market and absolutely love teaching there, but it wasn’t possible to put Texas on my tour this time. Fingers crossed for next time – xo
Hope you come to Vancouver someday soon!
I would love to see you in Philadelphia! I hope it’s a late(r) addition to the tour!
Philadelphia is not on the tour this time, but it’s so close to NYC and I’ve got friends there, so I’m hoping that, as you said, it might be a later addition – xo
Come bake cookies in Atlanta!
I was really hope that I’d get to go south this time, but … xo
Hi Dorie !
Will you be planning any dates in Florida?
I’m in the Boca Raton area . My friends and I would love to be part of the book tour visits!!!
Sadly, no plans for Florida on this tour. I love Boca Raton – it’s where my parents lived – and hope to get there again one day.
Oklahoma City would love to have you but we’d drive if we need to. Dallas? Austin maybe?
It would be lovely to see you again, alas … xo
Thank you Dorie for the Melody cookie recipe! I baked them today and they’re our new favorites. The perfect cookie…a great snap, crunch and deep chocolate flavor. Looking forward to your book signing in Berkeley!
It’s one of my husband’s favorite cookies – so glad you like it too. See you in Berkeley!
