It was so much fun talking you. And I am still in awe of how pretty you made the cake look. And I still need to buy that Dali book you wrote about in a recent post. (you are going to make me go broke buying cookbooks.)
Thank you for this wonderful post, Jolene! And congratulations on your Dali newsletter! You are officially a magical realist food writer yourself!!!! Love, Jamie
This book sounds incredible, Jolene - a combination of my favorite things- chocolate, short stories and recipes! I just ordered it from my local bookstore! I'm excited to read and bake!
"‘The Mysterious Meatloaf Couple’ who rendezvous at a diner and can barely contain their lust." This made me literally LOL. This was a great interview.
My book arrived yesterday, and I think it's going to be one that my food-obsessed book club women will want to have! Does Genevieve live in the UK? I wish I could have had lunch with you on Tuesday...is the lovely platter a recent find? You always go the extra mile for your readers, and I'm glad Substack agrees! ❤️
Such a great post, Jolene! I’m definitely ordering this book. Congrats on being a featured Substack publication. No one deserves it more. I wouldn’t be surprised if there was a book in your future too! 🤗

Just delish issue! 🍫🍰
P.S. Congrats on the featured badge, Jolene! 👏

"The major goal is the work." Yes! Brilliant, sensible advice. Now, I'm off to search for some chocolate cake :)

So true about agents, editors, and publishing. That's how it happened for me as well. I didn't go looking. They came looking for me!
