I’m beyond excited to share one of my dear and oldest friends, Erin Gleeson‘s latest book. I cannot wait to get my hands on it and cook with my son:

The Forest Feast for Kids, is a vegetarian cookbook filled with 40 fun recipes for kids of all ages to make. Recipes are presented in a visual and approachable way to make kids want to try new fruits and vegetables. Using colorful produce makes cooking and eating more fun!

Erin Gleeson is an artist, photographer, home cook and New York Times best­selling author of The Forest Feast, a vegetarian cookbook based on her blog of the same name.

Erin lives in a cabin in the woods in Northern California with her husband and toddler son. We met in NYC, living in the same building. We spent the best part of our 20’s hanging with each other at Erin’s apartment (where, even then on a shoe-string budget she threw elaborate parties with delectable and creative treats). My oldest childhood friend Jonathan moved to the neighborhood and naturally they fell in love. I was sad when they shipped off to live in the woods but I knew Erin would do amazing photography there. Her son and my daughter are a month apart. I can’t wait to spend time with them when they come for Erin’s NYC book launch events to celebrate!
