I sat down (literally, sat on the ground) with Paul Octavious for this week’s podcast.

That’s right, I’ve got a little literary bun in the oven. I’m cooking up my first cookbook, to be released in Spring 2017! It feels a little surreal, kinda weird, but mainly really, really awesome. There are a hundred reasons why I’m excited, but I’d have to say that getting to work with one of my dream publishers […]

It’s the Season One finale of the One Part Podcast! One whole year has gone by since launching the first episode. It’s so crazy! There’s been lots of laughing, some tears, many an F-bomb, and tons of planty recipes. I cannot thank you all enough for listening, sharing the episodes, tweeting up a storm, and just plain supporting […]

This week I’m talking to body-positive advocate and emotional-eating expert Isabel Foxen Duke. Former OPP guest Katie Dalebout suggested her as a guest, and I’m so glad she did! Isabel really brought it to this episode.  In our chat, Isabel and I discuss how she landed in rehab after abusing drugs to control her weight, her path […]

You probably already know that I love Dana Shultz from Minimalist Baker (seen here and here). But like most of my internet girlfriends, we hadn’t ever actually spoken before this podcast. But based on our emails, her Lil Jon and Martin references, and her undying dedication to creating new dairy-free mac & cheese recipes, I knew that we’d […]
