Need a good summer read? I loved Jael McHenry’s debut novel The Kitchen Daughter (and not just because it contains an amazing brownie recipe, although that didn’t hurt). It’s the story of Ginny Selvaggio, a woman with undiagnosed Asperger’s syndrome who copes with family tension by cooking.
If you haven’t read it yet, Svelte Gourmand—a.k.a. the other site I blog at—is giving away a copy. Head over there and post a quick comment to be entered.

A full-time writer and a mom to two amazing—and yes, exhausting—young children, I work from home, where only my cats and kids can judge me for wearing yoga pants and drinking coffee by the gallons. My work has appeared in dozens of publications and websites, including Forbes.com, O, SELF and Women's Health; my first novel, THE ART OF FORGETTING, was just published by Penguin.
