Product Description
by Julie Seyler (Author)
"A must read! I found myself laughing as well as crying... Raw, Riveting, Real, Revealing, Relatable, Rousing."
"Julie serves up humor, insight, and dessert in equal measures - reminding us that even with the perfect 'recipe' you can't always create the perfect dish or relationship."
"If you're looking for a book that is as emotionally satisfying as it is delicious, this memoir is a must-read."
Julie Seyler's love life has been a recipe for disaster-and she has the baked goods to prove it.
In this humorous and heartfelt collection, beloved baking blogger Julie Seyler shares stories of love, loss, and everything in between-accompanied by her signature dessert recipes-in one irresistible, gluten-filled volume.
Whether she's arriving home after an awkward first date or seeking comfort once a promising relationship goes up in flames, Julie knows exactly where to turn when things go awry: the kitchen. And after three decades spent dating a cast of brooding, complicated Gen X creatives, her recipe box is overflowing-even while her bed remains empty.
From frustrating flings with the emotionally unavailable to an unflinching exploration of the love that lingers after tragedy, Gluten for Punishment is a wry and honest reminder that while relationships are rarely predictable, a sweet ending always awaits in the kitchen.
Features 40 recipes including 5-minute peanut butter mousse, Cape Breton-Style Oatcakes, and Czech Kolache.
