I'LL BRING THE APPS
Preorder my brand new cookbook, out March 3rd 2026!
I’ve been keeping this a secret for far too long, and can finally share the news: my newest cookbook has a name! and a cover! and it’s available now for PRE-ORDER BELOW!
I’ll Bring the Apps: Bites, Bowls, Boards and Beverages will be out on March 3rd, 2026, and I have a feeling it’ll quickly become a staple in your kitchen. When I was told about the release date, I had to laugh. It’s my 3rd book, in my 33rd year, on 3/3. Maybe it’s a lucky sign or just a funny coincidence, but either way it feels like the timing was meant to be.
DRUMROLL PLEASE….
This book is my love letter to all things appetizers. It’s organized into four sections: bites, bowls, boards, and beverages. Inside, you’ll find the step-by-step cheese plate guides you already know and love, along with 75 NEW RECIPES that include plenty of savory and sweet dips, loaded crostini, decadent burrata bowls, funky pasta salads, and so much more.
When I moved to upstate New York last year, I started hosting more frequent casual snack-style gatherings in my new home. Serving apps instead of a big dinner makes entertaining for a crowd so much easier. The food still looks elevated, tastes incredible, and takes far less effort to make. This book also includes sample menus for themed parties, tons of pairing ideas to mix and match, and tasty cocktails (dark chocolate tequila espresso martini, anyone?) Here’s a little sneak peek at some behind the scenes of the shoot!
So… Why announce the book nearly six months in advance? I wish I could give you an answer, but it’s just how the publishing industry works. The good news? I have some very exciting collaborations and chic new merch items on the way this fall. They’ll make the perfect holiday gifts while you wait for the book’s arrival in the brighter days of spring. More to come!
That being said, before we launch the new items, I’m hosting a big blowout sale to clear out our current webstore inventory. All merch is 30% off at checkout, starting today! Shop here.
