The last time I last added a post it was a cold, dreary winter day — four weeks ago.

Where has the time gone? Oh yeah, it’s been spent creating the above–our first spring catalog!

The photographer, Katherine Martinelli who shot the cover asked me recently in a Q&A for her blog how I juggled being a mom, wife, fully employed worker bee and start-up publisher. I can’t remember what I answered, but what I didn’t admit was that I barely have time lately to cook anything that’s not work related.

So we’ve been eating a lot of eggs and farmers’ toast.

But, it’s worth it because we’re introducing five ecookbooks this season–all filled with irresistible spring recipes. One by yours truly and four by amazing writers, who I have long respected and admired and whose culinary skills are extraordinary, including Katherine Martinelli, Kate Washington, Paul Abercrombie and the dynamic husband-and-wife duo, Diane Darrow and Tom Maresca. You can find out more about all of their books here.
