I am excited to introduce you to my new project in the works. I am currently up to my elbows in writing my first cookbook, "The Family Flavor: Practical Recipes for the Simple and Delicious", hopefully due out at the end of 2011.
The goal of this cookbook is to get you and yours enjoying a meal around the table together, while using accessible, diverse recipes. You will find dishes that everyone can be pleased with, even the vegetarians in your life.
Each recipe is being double tested by people just like you. Mom's with children at their knee while they cook. Women with 9 to 5 jobs and don't have all day to prep a meal. Family's that want to gather around the table for a slow Sunday meal. Using "real people" to test my recipes gives the recipes the true test of real life.
Another great part about this cookbook is the photography. I have been collaborating with the ever-talented and creative Sheena Jibson. The photographs are vibrant, beautiful and real. There are no studio lights or pretend props. The photos depict what you will see on your own table.
Follow along as this beautiful cookbook progresses.
So do i get a prize for being the first to comment? How bout, get off FB and take care of your kids so you dont see these posts 12 sec. after they are posted? ANyways....just wanted to say hooray and that I am eagerly anticipating your cookbook. Im all about recipes that WORK. Im tired of seeing a cool pic in a book, thinking...that looks pretty good and having it turn into something nobody in my fam will touch. Tried and true recipes that people really LIKE...sounds amazin. Thanks whitney and good luck!
ReplyDeleteIt's okay, Brit...I'm at work and I still saw the FB post 12 seconds after she posted it. So you aren't taking care of your kids and I'm not working...you are among good company! =)
ReplyDeleteSo excited, Whitney. Can't wait to get the cookbook and brag that I have actually had your food in person for real!!
Way to not give me my due credit for the title. I expect the book to be dedicated to me to make up for your mistake.
ReplyDeleteGreat to hear you're still cooking. And don't forget that Dads like to cook too. ;-)
ReplyDeleteI was too bummed that Rookie Cookie blog ended, I couldn't bring myself to unsubscribe to its RSS feed. I'm glad I didn't.
Good Luck!
YAY!!! Can't wait...this is exciting!! Congrats and LOVE LOVE LOVE the title!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! I'm glad I didn't unsubscribe! Can't wait to see the finished product of all your hard work!

ReplyDeleteI am so excited! I have been visiting the Rookie Cookie site to create my weekly meal plans for my husband and me.....I was so sad to see you stop blogging...but a cookbook?! Perfect!! Best of luck with the progress!
ReplyDelete.. Whitney.. good luck on your cookbook! .. know the pics will be great as well as the recipes... from the photographer's gram...
ReplyDeleteYay! I was bummed when you stopped your blog, but I still go back to grab a recipe here or there. In celebration of your upcoming book, this week I'm making your (Ethan's) roast chicken and gravy, your teriaki meatballs and rice, and your pumpkin pancakes. Mmmmm! BTW, the link doesn't work when I click on the steak cheddar skillet. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteYay! I'm excited for you to do this, I'm glad I decided to randomly check back in on your old blog.
ReplyDeleteSo excited!!! I still use your blog for some great go-tos, but a cook-book?!?! WOO-HOO!!!!
