“I tell my daughters that when I go, they’ll know the good recipes by the dirty pages.” —Kim McKinney

Dirty pages. The cookbook pages ringed with coffee stains, the recipes smudged with chocolate or butter, dusted with flour,  a creased piece of paper or the back of an old envelope, pages wrinkled and folded, the faded careful script of a mother or grandmother. They're the recipes we refer to again and again. But beyond the dishes they help create, these pages hold stories. 

Dirty Pages has been organized by food writers Erin Murray, Jennifer Justus and Cindy Wall, a trio of friends who eat enthusiastically, write passionately, and believe fully in the ways shared stories about food tie us together.

Come see the latest installation of Dirty Pages featured on the walls of The Nashville Food Project and bring your own favorite dish for a community-style potluck!

This is event is free and open to the public. RSVPs encouraged! For accessibility information or accommodation requests, please email elizabeth@thenashvillefoodproject.org
