I'm just a guy, standing in front of a book, asking it to cook itself. I started this little project at the start of Quarantine 2020™ when cooking was the only thing that brought me joy. I've since learned that I really enjoy specific goals, like cooking every recipe from a cookbook, à la Julie and Julia. Have a book I should cook next or want to ask a question about a book? Tweet me on the internet @darrendub. Thanks for stopping by 🤙🏽
