cook book

The book is almost done! Easy Recipes for Difficult Dinner Guests is a collection of recipes suitable for a variety of food intolerances and allergies. Jennie and I have been working hard and we are excited to have brought our idea into reality (and fully illustrated at that!). I'm particularly proud of these little watercolors because they are light, simple and pretty, adding a bit of charm to the book.

easy dinners


My good friend Jennie O'Hara and I have been working very hard on a little book of delicious recipes called 'Easy Dinners for Difficult Dinner Guests'. The point of the cookbook is to give people ideas of what to make when they are preparing a meal for someone with certain dietary restrictions. (We aren't saying that people with intolerances are being difficult, but rather that it can seem like a challenge to cook according to their needs.) You can find out more about Jennie (and the interesting things that she does) at her website: www.jennieohara.com
We'll be selling the book, so get in touch if you are interested! Here are a few examples:
