About the Authors

Heidi Larsen of foodieCrusH

Josh Rosenthal left West Texas as soon as he could for the mountains of Northern Utah, but he made sure to lure the lovely Becky Burns to come along after her four years at the University of Oklahoma. Through a series of miracles, Becky chose Josh and together they became the Rosenthals.

Josh lives as a singer/songwriter/author/pastor/entrepreneur supporting Becky in her endeavors with Grace Food Group (Vintage Mixer, a recipe blog focusing on seasonal, fresh ingredients, and SLC Foodie). Josh is also the CEO of Charming Beard Coffee Roasters, a small local roaster with two locations in Salt Lake City and more than sixty wholesale accounts. You’ll also find him as an associate pastor at Missio Dei Community in downtown Salt Lake City. In all of their efforts, Josh and Becky seek the best for Salt Lake City and the people who choose to call it home. However, the adventure of transcontinental travel constantly catches their imagination leading to excessive daydreaming and scheming of their next trip abroad.

Josh and Becky live in Salt Lake City with their son Everett and Portuguese waterdog, Henry. They are the driving forces behind a few popular blogs for foodies in Salt Lake City. Check out SLCfoodie.com for local food info, @SLCfoodie on Twitter, or theVintageMixer.com.
