My cookbook was featured in the newspaper!

Jul 13, 2016 · 14 Comments

Today is an exciting day – my cookbook was featured in the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel newspaper!

The Sweetphi cookbook was featured in the newspaper in Milwaukee, WI this image

If you don’t live in the Milwaukee area and would like to read the article, you can read it here! I can honestly say, I don’t know how Alison, the amazing interviewer/author of the piece, did it…we had over an hour-long conversation, plus multiple emails, and she was able to condense it all into a truly beautifully written article. I am so thankful and wowed by her work!!

In the article I share a few recipes from the cookbook, and I was making the peanut butter sea salt cookies (that’s what you see me making in the picture – they’re so incredible, worth the price of the cookbook alone!)

In the feature I talk about the story behind the cookbook and my Five Ingredient Friday’s series, which is where the idea of the cookbook started. I also love how Alison captured my daily life and shared about my small kitchen. What you have to realize, is that (probably typical of my crazy busy days) when we did the interview we were probably interrupted more than 5 times – work needing to get done on the house, a work phone call that needed to be answered, husband coming home from work, in the middle of making dinner etc. I apologized, but then we both laughed because it is pretty typical of one of my evenings. That is one of the many reasons I wrote the cookbook and am in love with the title Fast & Easy Five Ingredient Recipes: A Cookbook for Busy People.

Because we’re all busy, right? I’d love to make dinnertime a little easier. Thank you again for all your support. If you haven’t already, you can pre-order my cookbook via: Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Boswell Books, IndieBound and Walmart (and there’s a pre-order bonus going on through July 18th – read more about that here)

If you’re new here to the SweetPhi blog, WELCOME, HELLO, SO HAPPY YOU’RE HERE!

    Before the advent of the Internet and food bloggers, the Milwaukee newspapers were my go-to for new recipes. When I would visit my parents in Brookfield from here in northern WI, the food sections of their papers were the first things I would read. Congratulations on making the news, and more importantly, your new book. I have seen your recipes and other publicity regarding your cookbook on other food-bloggers sites, and it’s being very well received! You’ve made it, Phi!
