A California Dream of a Cookbook

A 2023 Next Generation Indie Book Award Winner for Best Nonfiction Design

A 2023 Next Generation Indie Book Award Finalist for Best Cookbook

"A charming take on California cuisine... This well-crafted cookbook serves as an excellent guide to living in tune with nature and the seasons." -- Publishers Weekly

Eat and drink what's in season and you'll never grow bored, your menus will be less complicated, and everything will taste better. That's Valerie Rice's motto, and it's guided her to become an accomplished gardener, cook, and cocktail maker, three talents that--along with her charm and no-fuss style--have made her EatDrinkGarden Instagram and blog a hit. In Lush Life, Valerie brings together 156 of her favorite seasonal recipes for entertaining, family meals, snacks, and so much more, including cocktail recipes and wine advice. Rigorously home tested and gorgeously photographed by Gemma and Andrew Ingalls, Lush Life is a California dream of a cookbook that will inspire readers to grow their own, cook it fresh, and pour a luscious beverage.

With wine commentary by James Beard winner Raj Parr and a foreword by Suzanne Goin, author of Sunday Suppers at Lucques.

Perfect for home cooks, garden enthusiasts, and anyone looking to add a bit of freshness to their everyday meal prepping.
