Narrative As Books My Drunk Kitchen: A Guide to Eating, Drinking, and Going with Your Gut
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLEROne day, sad cubicle dweller and otherwise bored New York transplant Hannah Hart decided, as a joke, to make a fake cooking show for her friend back in California. She turned on the camera, pulled out some bread and cheese, and then, as one does, started drinking. (Doesn't everyone cook with a spoon in one hand and a bottle of wine in the other?) The video went viral and an online sensation was born.
My Drunk Kitchen includes recipes, stories, full color photos, and drawings to inspire your own culinary adventures in tipsy cooking. It is also a showcase for Hannah Hart's great comedic voice. Hannah offers key drink recommendations, cooking tips (like, remember to turn the oven off when you go to bed) and shares never-before-seen recipes such as:
The Hartwich (Knowledge is ingenuity! Learn from the past!)
Can Bake (Inventing things is hard! You don't have to start from scratch!)
Latke Shotkas (Plan ahead to avoid a night of dread!)
Tiny Sandwiches (Size doesn't matter! Aim to satisfy.)
Saltine Nachos (It's not about resources! It's about being resourceful.)
This is a book for anyone who believes they have what it takes to make a soufflé for the holiday party and show up the person who apparently has nothing better to do than bake things from scratch. It also recommends the drink you'll need to accompany any endeavor of this magnitude. In the end, My Drunk Kitchen may not be your go-to guide for your next dinner party . . . but it will make you laugh and drink . . . I mean think . . . about life.

To be perfectly honest I did think that this was a full cookbook with lots of recipes and pictures. This is not that type of book. It is more of a play by play rulebook to different stages of life:Making the Most of What you Got, Adultolescence, Relationship, and Family and Holidays. Also, Hannah teaches you how you can cope with it in a fun way with food and alcohol. Don't forget the alcohol! Reading this book it appears that Hannah's logic is "Everything just seems to go better with alcohol".Hannah's a big damn deal these days but she has managed to stay so grounded and true to herself despite her astronomical rise to fame. This book made me laugh out loud a lot and think thinky thoughts. I loved every page of it. I think you should pay your dollars for it because Hannah Hart works her ass off. None of what she's accomplished has come easy. And she's one of the good ones and I think we should all be supporting artists who are the good ones.
Being a fan of John Green, I had heard of Hannah Hart, but never went to Youtube to find out anything about her. I don't spend a lot of time on Youtube, and I didn't really know what her channel was about. But when I saw this available on Edelweiss, I really was excited to check it out. Plus I do love a good cookbook.I'm disappointed. Not in the recipes, mind you. While they're intensely unconventional (and most aren't, in fact, real recipes), I actually did see a few that made me pause and
In a word? Quirky. Like the Hannah in her videos, the voice in this book is at times VERY cheesy, punny, Hart-felt, and quaint. I DID learned that bananas are good for anxiety. And I think a slightly (rebellious? anti-elitist? youthful? poverty-stricken?) side of me loved this book because of how much my boyfriend hated it. It doesn't offer glossy prints of high quality, impressive food. Instead, it smashes genres together with the casual gracelessness of a drunk person making a grilled cheese
Easily the best cookbook I've read that really about being in your 20s and not quite having it all figured out. Also the only cookbook I've read that includes a recipe for ordering Thai takeout.
This is everything I hoped it would be, a short, funny pun filled joyride with one of my favorite YouTubers. Kind of kooky, totally genuine and endearing just like Hannah :)
Hannah Hart is effervescent. If you've ever seen any of her YouTube videos, you know that puns, wine, and inexorably deep self-awareness define her channel and, truthfully, her person. Sure, the concept might seem simple: get drunk, cook, make a few puns, give some advice and call it a day. However, through her presence on YouTube and now in the form of this absolutely stunning Cook/Self-Help book, Hannah shares the key personal thoughts and experiences off which she bases the advice given
