new website...



after a year of dreaming and hard work, i am brimming with pride as i unveil saminnosrat.com.  please let me know me what you think!

it may look simple, but let me tell you, simple is really hard to pull off!

this could not have been possible without the help of the following amazing people:
tracy lenihan--graphic designer, dream shepherd, and general wonderful person
aya brackett--photographer extraordinaire
charlie hallowell--for letting us take over his house for the shoot
erin fogg--programming
ulan mcknight--hosting
dana velden--for lending me that dreamy typewriter (if you ever want something out of me, i'd pretty much do anything for a classic olivetti valentine that types in cursive)
nancy roberts--for her help on the day of the shoot

Tartine Afterhours: Tuesday, June 28th


I'm so excited to welcome Daniel Klein of The Perennial Plate into the kitchen with me for Tartine Afterhours this month.  If you aren't familiar with him, watch a few of his videos and get to know him--he's the real deal.  We'll trek out to some local urban and rural farms on the day before the dinner to harvest produce, and I'll see if I can talk Chad into baking some special loaves for us.  I think it's safe to say it'll be pretty awesome.
