Talking Cookbooks with Debbie Berne (opens the original)
Read excerpt
When I first listened to our episode with book designer and author Debbie Berne, I was surprised by Kristin’s rather bold opening line:“Not every cookbook is for every person, but we’re going to talk about one book that is for every listener of our podcast.”Here at Everything Cookbooks, we champion all our guests (and their books) and try hard not to play favorites, so this sounded like a pretty audacious claim. But as I listened to the whole conversation and read De

On episode 180 of our podcast, we had a conversation about the many headwinds facing cookbook publishing. There’s rising costs for just about every part of the business—paper, shipping—and then there’s the rising costs for people trying to cook at home.

Even so, I am not quite in back-to-school, autumn mode myself. Instead, I am soaking up some last draughts of summer on the shores of a sparkling lake in Northern Ontario. So when I listened to last week’s rerun of Episode 115 (from January 2025), during which all four hosts ch

Just this past week, I was surprised to hear that (author of 9 cookbooks, cooking teacher, and culinary tour host who divides her time between Italy and Virginia) would be doing an author talk at our local indie bookstore, Phoenix Books. Domenica was a guest on Everything Cookbooks last spring, follo
