Recipe for Disaster is a collection of stories and recipes-from a veritable who's who from the worlds of food, music, art, literature, activism, fashion, and pop culture-about finding comfort in food, surviving the unthinkable, and living to tell about both. Part cookbook, part candid confessions, this book of good food for bad times reminds us that even the worst of days yield something worth sharing: a story, a banana dipped in chocolate, and the welcome reminder that we've all been there.
