Rustic Joyful Food

Seattle food scene favorite Danielle Kartes's new cookbook, Rustic Joyful Food: Meant to Share, centers on the idea that life is good right now, in this moment. Despite life's difficulties we have the capacity to find joy, and we can share that joy through the food we make. Cooking and feeding people is about loving the journey, not having it all put together. It's about laughter and making memories, and it's about being present, even if the rest of our life is decidedly imperfect.Rising star Kartes's new cookbook taps into a deep need to gather with friends and family to share good food and laughter, and is thematically organized to aid readers in creating meaningful moments with the special people in their lives.
