Gershman Y, 2011

What a lovely evening at The Gershman Y in Philadelphia, PA on Tuesday, September 20.

My favorite story was from Sherry, who has adult onset food allergies. She had read Allergic Girl before my arrival for the talk and told me that she had used the dining out protocol from for a work event. She was happy to report that she enjoyed her first allergen-friendly work event, ever. She even sent a handwritten thank you with the language I provided in the book and was thrilled when the restaurant replied to her note immediately and with gratitude. A great story from a great evening!
