In this special episode, Steve (Chef Bai’s Husband) sits down and interviews Bailey about the upcoming cookbook “Cook. Heal. Go Vegan!”. Together they talk all things about the launch of the cookbook, the writing of the cook book, and everything in between. Steve asks Bailey about how her childhood dream of writing a cookbook, and how this process stacked up to her expectations. Also how it was to write a cookbook as a newly married couple, who share their own business together, in the middle of a global pandemic. They received the first copy/sample of the cookbook about a 2 months ago and how it brought so many emotions. They discusses those feelings of shock, happiness, pride, and gratitude. Together, working so hard in such a short deadline for this cookbook really pushed the envelope for Steve and Bailey. They chat about the struggles of the photography aspect of the cook book. The ups and downs they went through, the process of creating the props and scene for each recipe, and the relief of finally nailing the perfect shot. Along with the conversation, they chat about the book launch tour, which they are soo excited for. They will be throwing a party in San Diego on August 18th at 1835 Studios venue @ 6-9PM PST. There will be a vegan food truck (Rollin’ Roots), there will be sponsors from Nova Kombucha and OB Brewery, a local Ocean Beach band, and a raffle including local products like Manakind!
