I Just Wish I Had A Bigger Kitchen Book Tour
tickets are LIVE!!
Hello! It’s here! I’m so excited to share that the I Just Wish I Had A Bigger Kitchen Book Tour is LIVE—and tickets are now on sale! I can’t believe I will get to meet so many of you in person this fall. You’ll find all the dates, times, and locations on the flyer and all of the events with links for tickets below!
I truly can’t wait to meet so many of you in person—after years of DMs, tags on Instagram stories, sharing in the ups and downs of motherhood, and connecting here in the Substack comments, it feels incredibly special (and a little surreal!) that this book is finally making its way into the world…and that I’ll be getting to spend time with you all so soon!
Tickets are linked below—be sure to grab yours soon. Since some of these event venues are small, tickets may sell out. It’s going to be so much fun!
If you run into any issues with your ticket or have questions about a specific event, please reach out to the contact listed on that event’s page. The Naptime Kitchen team only controls a small handful of these events internally.

Each stop on the tour is a little different in terms of price and experience, based on the venue and what’s included. Ticket prices are set by each location, and we've priced everything at cost to make it as affordable as possible. NTK isn’t making a dime from these events—this is all about connecting with you!
I am sincerely sorry I can’t make it to each and every city requested. I would love nothing more than to hug each of you who have supported me in such a big way with this book launch.
I can’t wait to meet you!!!

I was dreaming of flying to one of these events but it was just too challenging! I couldn’t be more bummed these just seem like such thoughtful and incredible events. If the urge hits you to visit NYC last minute, I’m there. Congratulations on all your success. It’s so well deserved!!!
