My heart is full! 💕 Thank you to everyone who cam My heart is full! 💕

Thank you to everyone who came to my cookbook launch on Saturday!

Seeing so many familiar faces gathered to celebrate “Dish and Tell” meant more to me than I can say. Family, friends, neighbors, recipe contributors who are featured in the book — wow. I’m still a little verklempt that so many of you showed up from near and far!!

This book began as a small idea in my heart, shaped by the ladies in my family aka the “keepers” who taught me that food is love. To stand in a room filled with people who helped bring it to life felt surreal and deeply humbling.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for celebrating with me. 😘

Happy “pub day” to Dish and Tell: Recipes from the Happy “pub day” to Dish and Tell: Recipes from the Heart! 

It’s a book that began as a love letter to the recipes and stories from my family but grew into a celebration of kitchens all across Minnesota. The classic, tried and true dishes handed down through the generations. The potluck party pleasers and church-basement favorites. The handwritten recipe cards. The dishes that remind us of home.💕
 
I’m so grateful to the families who shared their cherished recipes with me and gave me a seat at their tables, the amazing team at @mnhspress, Sue Everson for the beautiful book design, and Rachael White from @setthetablephotography for capturing the heart of this book through the cover and so many of the stunning images inside! 😘
 
The book is officially out in the world as of today, and I’m sending it off with all my heart.❤️ 

XOXO,
Sarah
