Take control of your diet in 2016 by learning to cook from scratch! Learn how easy it is to plan, shop for and prepare nourishing food at home. And celebrate the 7th anniversary of Runaway Apricot!

On January 19, 2009 I founded Runaway Apricot to pursue my passion of teaching people how to cook from scratch. I believe that the skill to cook real food – not diet crazes or hard-to-access ingredients – is vital to our bodies and the environment. In 2015 I was named a Yahoo Food Blogger of the Week and shared simple recipes and thoughtful essays about foodways and food behaviors with more than 1 million visitors to RunawayApricot.com. Now in 2016, I am extending that passion for local, seasonal and healthy food with live cooking classes to help my community take control of our diets. Join me on the 7th Anniversary of Runaway Apricot for a live cooking class in Harlem, NYC!

Spring Moves Inc. – 124 East 124th Street New York, NY 10035
