I so admire people who can write about food and touch our souls, and you are one of them, Sarah. Can't wait!

(Two of my favorites are Tamar Adler's "An Everlasting Meal: Cooking with Economy and Grace", and Ella Risbridger's "The Year of Miracles") 🤍

So fun! Have you read Blood, Bones & Butter: The Inadvertent Education of a Reluctant Chef by Gabrielle Hamilton? Such a fun read in the food world.

Late to the shift. I was going through my subscriptions and couldn’t recall how I’d arrived here, but this post explains it. I am here for it! It’s so fascinating how in this journey we are so connected. I have been awakening more and more to food in this season too!
