On Saturday, September 20th, you’ll find me at the 9th Annual Newport Mansions Wine and Food Festival. At 1:30, I will be doing a demo in the Marble House about how to make a French apple tart in the shape of a rose and I will be sharing a little trick that will enable anyone to slice the apples paper thin, even those who are not handy with a knife. Then, I will be signing cookbooks at 2:15. The festival runs from September 19th to 21st at Rosecliff, The Elms, and Marble House Mansions. For more information go to Newport Mansions Wine and Food. For tickets, go to Wine and Food Tickets.
