Acknowledgments

A giant thanks and hug to Susan Finesman of Fine Literary for believing in me and this book, and to Laura Dozier and the kind folks at Abrams Books for making it a reality. Thank you to all of my friends and family who lent a hand with recipe testing. Mom, Jessie, John, Beryl, Kristi, Brad, Andrea, Eva, Carey, and Peggy, you are all amazing. Thank you to my interns Eva Goellner, Stephanie Holmes, and Sofia Kraft who helped behind and in front of the camera. Thank you to my dear friend Carey for being so supportive of what I do and being there whenever I need a helping hand. And the deepest thanks to my husband, Jeremy, for doing all the dishes, embracing my madness, being the most patient taste-tester, and loving me through it all.
