A beautiful exploration on grief! Follows the author as she grieves the death of her mother, falling in love, and quitting her career to go to culinary school.
This book was full of heart and humor. It’ll make you laugh, smile, cry, nod your head in agreement, and make you hungry! I loved the discussions on grief and the non-linear journey it takes to process. I also enjoyed the recipes and reading about her adventures in baking at Le Cordon Bleu!
Would highly recommend if you enjoy books that explore grief/loss or if you’re a foodie 🩷
