Get your eat on! Join Ayun Halliday, author of "Dirty Sugar Cookies:Culinary Observations, Questionable Taste" and Anna Lappe, co-author of "Grub: Ideas for an Urban Organic Kitchen" and "Hope's Edge," for a culinary reading and cookie swap. Bring a plate of cookies (or your preferred baked treat) and a couple dozen lit-loving friends, also bearing cookies. We'll nibble throughout the readings, then distribute the remains for all your holiday entertaining needs.
