"There is magic in cooking, and in cooking Italian food there is alchemy" - Old World Italian by Mimi ThorissonSince our lives contain multitudes, yes an American poet once said that, I feel to step away from the noise is to disarm the outside influences that are at times necessary and sometimes it is just kind of ridiculous. So the remedy is to open a cookbook and read a recipe and make something beautiful. I am an instinctual cook, I like throwing things together and using what is within reach, but sometimes I do find it quite meditative to pull a book and take some quiet time to wander through the pages, let the pages talk to me. I find this kind of thing quite wonderful and simple. I like reading about the author's philosophy and personal experience, what brought them to share their world of cooking and eating and sharing. I find this rather meditative and inspirational, a balm for my spirit. In these changing times I believe it could be the perfect antidote to the things piling up on top of us. Cook something, eat something, and maybe share it with a friend.Note: The image is from my table, while editing I was baking my favourite Ricciarelli - the Tuscan almond biscuits from the cookbook by Gennaro Contaldo - Gennaro's Italian Bakery...Enjoy, Michelle xShownotes A Writer in Italy InstagramSubstack - At My TableMichelle's BooksMusical Scores by Richard JohnstonA Writer in Italy is about travel and life.

I'm sharing what I've seen over and over again about what actually gets a cookbook written and published and why the difference is often not talent, timing, or opportunity, but willingness.

What can a beautifully prepared dinner teach about running a successful business? Quite a lot, according to Ellen Wright, a five-time cookbook author who trained with culinary icons Julia Child and James Beard. In this week's episode, Ellen shares how the principles that guide her cooking translate seamlessly into leadership, entrepreneurship, and everyday decision-making. Her approach is refreshingly practical: keep things simple, prepare in advance, and don't panic when something goes wrong. A collapsed dessert can become a new creation. A business misstep can spark innovation. The key is adaptability. Ellen also highlights something many leaders overlook — success is less about perfection and more about people. Whether hosting a dinner party or managing a team, the goal is to create an environment where others feel comfortable, engaged, and valued. From disciplined preparation to creative problem-solving, Ellen's insights offer a recipe for success that any business owner can follow. If you're hungry for fresh ideas — and practical strategies you can apply immediately — this episode is a feast. Bon appétit.

Welcome to another episode of the Cookbook Love Podcast. Most people think the outcome of writing a cookbook is the finished book, but I've seen something much bigger happen along the way. In this episode, I explore what really happens when we choose a meaningful creative challenge like writing a cookbook. Many cookbook writers I work with are already successful professionals: chefs, dietitians, coaches, and entrepreneurs who decide to write a book not because they have to, but because the work matters to them. I share the unexpected benefits I've seen from writing a cookbook, including identity shifts, creative discipline, professional credibility, community, and new opportunities. In this episode, I talk about: • Why writing a cookbook is a chosen challenge • How creative projects activate your agency and identity • Why hard work doesn't have to feel miserable • The deeper benefits that come from finishing a creative project Whether you're writing a cookbook, building a food business, or starting another creative project, this episode will help you see the deeper transformation that can happen when you commit to creating something meaningful. If you want to get paid to write a cookbook, join our waitlist for the next cohort of Cookbooks on KDP.

This week on Kitchen Tape, Rose steps out and Crystal sits down with Tara Punzone, co-author of Vegana Italiana, to talk about writing plant-based cookbooks for specific audiences and finding your niche— and getting the message across without losing warmth, culture, or credibility. We discuss how tradition can be translated rather than erased, what it means to serve a niche reader thoughtfully, and how clarity of purpose shapes everything from recipe development to tone, structure, and outreach. It's a conversation about plant-based food as a language, and about meeting readers exactly where they are.Mentioned in this episode:• Vegana Italiana: Traditional Italian the Plant-Based Way by Tara Punzone and Gene Stone• Pura Vita• Gene Stone (books)• The Engine 2 Cookbook by Rip Esselstyn• Ed Anderson (photography)

Norm specializes in providing e-commerce and online marketing services for brands. He has worked with fortune 500 companies such as Coca-Cola, Mercedes-Benz, and 20th Century Fox since the early 1990s. Norm has focused on helping entrepreneurs optimize their operations and unlock their businesses potential. Presently, he is the host of the popular Amazon podcast lunch with Norm. So welcome to the show, Norm.Norm 00:00:32  Hey, glad to be here.Josh 00:00:33  So, Norm, I wanted to ask, you know, what are some of the best practices that you see with that? And maybe do you have any case studies or maybe some examples that you might be able to share with us, just to kind of spark some ideas in people's mind of the various opportunities that do lie in, you know, building your own audience off of Amazon from those insert cards.Norm 00:00:55  Well, and it's a good and bad story, but I know we were working with a beauty company who had built an email list up to 280,000 emails.Norm 00:01:08  Wow. But he would not. He never. He thought it was inconvenient. It would inconvenience people if he sent them emails.Josh 00:01:18  That doesn't make sense.Norm 00:01:19  280,000 emails. So yeah, that that that wasn't, that wasn't a smart move, but,Josh 00:01:27  Attracting. I mean, how did he attract 280,000 people to give him their email address? Right. Like, do you know what the offer was?Norm 00:01:36  Yeah. Well, different beauty products. So what it would be is you could go. You could go to the insert. It would go to a landing page. The landing page, would offer them one of his other products. So if you had the shampoo conditioner, you could have the, what's called keratin treatment, or you could have, there was, some serums and stuff like that, but you were offered a free product. So in the $10.Josh 00:02:06  In the insert card on the insert card, it says, hey, claim your free product I assume then yeah. Okay.Norm 00:02:13  Yeah. So all it did was send.Norm 00:02:16  He got the email address and the address because he had to send the product. So he had, he had it all and he did not and would not send out a single email.Josh 00:02:29  Fascinating. Yeah. Which is you know, going back you kind of shared that stat that you think that people are missing out on 40% of revenue just by not implementing, you know, additional as. Yeah. Right.Norm 00:02:43  You sell a million bucks, you're missing out a 400,000.Josh 00:02:46  Fascinating. Yeah. Any other stories or examples of, like, insert cards or, you know, ways that work to get people to provide their email address?Norm 00:02:56  Well, there's always the extended warranty. So that is something, again, going back to the knife company, extended warranty. So it's a lifetime warranty. Okay, great. That's a lifetime warranty anyway. Basically. But, you know, it's a lifetime warranty. another one was just like I was talking to you about before. A knife with the honing rod. Okay, great.Norm 00:03:20  another one that worked for that company was the meal plan and cookbook. So you can either download and get a weekly email. So what's in that weekly email with the weekly plan? Well, there's some sort of promotion. It wasn't all the time, but there was either just some recipes. So this is something that we did as well. We went out and we, talked to chefs and we talked to culinary schools, and we gave them, very expensive knife. And so the deal was we'll supply the whole class with these very expensive knives. if they provide us with a recipe and spread it out on their social media, tag us on their social media. So we got a ton of user generated content and we got a ton of Recipes. So what do we do on Amazon posts? We provided recipes. So that started to get a very unique following. And then because of that, we ended up getting all this really cool stuff that we could put onto this other page, fill in to the newsletter, and when people got their newsletter, they got recipes, which ended up being two full, really incredible recipe books.Norm 00:04:34  So now we give away the recipe books. But we could peel off one recipe at a time, which people enjoyed, you know? And we didn't do it, but you could have even segmented it further. If the person was vegan, you could just send them vegan recipes or vegetarian or, you ...

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, we're deep in the 1-to-2 kid transition and debating the question everyone has opinions on: is the biggest life shift going from 0–1 kids, 1–2 kids, or 2+ kids? We get into what actually feels different this time around, what we weirdly care less about, and why confidence the second time somehow still leads to reorganizing half the house (yes sorry we're still on this topic - WE HAVE UPDATES!)  We kick things off with a mommy & me dance class announcement (MELT), argue (bicker but not bicker of the week) about the best Olympic sport, and Harrison makes a strong case for why cookbooks deserve a comeback in 2026 (I feel like I'm still good with google???). Then we get into life with a 16-month-old who has officially become a food critic, the one grocery item we cannot keep stocked, and the recipes currently saving us (ps. COMMENT: Toddler friendly recipes - we are still ISO new ones to try please!!!!).  From there, we explain why we're ACTUALLY changing the kids' rooms (I guess we never told you guys lol), recap Tate's first night in her big girl room (shockingly smooth), and share what we're buying for the playroom (plus the one thing we're absolutely SKIPPING).  We also spiral into learning that moms can apparently catch their own babies (hard no for me), admit we've changed our minds on a former “must-have” product, and confirm that toddlers humble you daily (in general lol).  Naturally, we end with the important stuff: whether Zoom calls at coffee shops are socially acceptable, if treadmill miles count as real miles (will this be the new listening vs. reading??), why patterned couches might be an elite parenting hack, and whether admin nights are the future of adult friendships. Plus: mahjong with mom friends - and absolute MUST.  LOVE YOU GUYS (thank you for listening!!!!!) Timestamps: 00:00:00 Welcome back to Two Parents & Podcast! 00:00:32 We're starting mommy & me dance class!!  00:06:10 What's the best Olympic sport?!  00:08:08 Cookbooks deserve a comeback in 2026 00:13:55 New recipes for 16-month-olds (because toddlers are suddenly food critics) 00:19:35 Why are we ACTUALLY changing the kids' rooms?! 00:20:57 4 things we're ordering for our toddler playroom (and 1 thing we're NOT) 00:29:25 Tate's first night in her big girl room  00:33:58 Did you know moms can “catch” their own baby?! 00:35:40 Is the biggest life change 0–1 kid, 1–2 kids, or 2+ kids?! 00:42:26 We CHANGED OUR MINDS on our previously MOST recommended product 00:44:24 What's the one food you can't keep in stock because of your toddler?! 00:53:18 Is it socially acceptable to take Zoom calls at a coffee shop?! 00:57:00 Bicker of the Week: Does treadmill mileage count as “real” miles?! 01:04:15 Interior design tip for parents with young children: patterned couches 01:07:40 Things We DMed Eachother: Admin Nights 01:14:52 Mahjong with mom friends 01:16:50 LOVE YOU GUYS! #twoparentsandapod --------------------------------------------------------------- Thank you to our sponsors this week: *IM8: Go to https://www.IM8HEALTH.com/TWOPARENTS and use code TWOPARENTS for a Free Welcome Kit, five free travel sachets plus 10% off your order. *Branch Basics: Head to https://www.BranchBasics.com to shop the Premium Starter Kit and save 15% off with code TWOPARENTS *Quince: Go to https://www.Quince.com/ALEX for 365-day returns, plus free shipping on your order! *Function Health: Visit https://www.functionhealth.com/TWOPARENTS or use gift code TWOPARENTS25 for a $25 credit toward your membership.

Why do we stay in toxic relationships even when we know better?
