Welcome to the latest episode of the podcast. I’m excited to be here today with an interview with Lisa Lucas and Debrianna Mansini. Outspoken TV pros Lisa and Debrianna shared their kitchens, hearts, anxieties, and good humor as they broadcast their culinary adventures during the Covid-19 lockdown. In the process, they connected with a hungry audience from around the globe and in turn created their cookbook That Time We Ate Our Feelings: 150 Recipes for Comfort Food from the Heart. In their recently released book Lisa and Debrianna share their most beloved dishes along with never-before-share creations and top-voted dishes by members of the Corona Kitchen community. Today on the podcast we discuss how they created their community, the importance of carving out time for joy, creativity, and cooking, as well as advice for first-time writers.  Things We Mention In This Episode: Learn How to Get Paid to Write a Cookbook The Corona Kitchen on Instagram Golden Goose Kitchen That Time We Ate Our Feelings Cookbook Vegetarian Epicure The Pleasure of Cooking Cuisinart Series The Greens Cookbook Someone’s in the Kitchen with Dinah Annemarie’s Personal Cookbook
