"I have taken a break from online life recently and focused like so many of us on how to live healthfully and responsibly amidst so many challenges. I have invested and reinvested in relationships and spent a lot of time thinking about how I want the future to look professionally and personally. (To that end, I also got married!)"
'm so grateful to have on the horizon the debut of Dessert Person -- into which I and so many people poured so much love and energy -- on October 20. The team at Clarkson Potter and I put together a digital booklet of bonus recipes that for some reason or another did not make it into the book, but are no less beloved and delicious. For those who pre-order the book, you can get the booklet by clicking the link in bio. (You'll be receiving a PDF, so desktop/laptop is best!)
I hope you enjoy it, and happy baking.
