Joni is a just a regular gal who loves to cook and bake. Especially for her friends and family. One of the things that drove her to write this book was her love for the foods she dearly missed when she became a strict vegetarian. Macaroni and cheese, spaghetti and meatballs, greasy breakfasts of bacon and eggs, rich and creamy soups, decadent desserts, even Hamburger Helper became off limits. As a creature of comfort Joni set out to recreate her favorite comfort foods in a cookbook that features easy to follow recipes. *Please note that this is the black and white version of this book, that was previously only available in color. To see full color photos of the recipes in this book, feel free to visit www.cozyinside.com . Enjoy yourself. Enjoy your food.
Joni is just a regular gal who loves to cook and bake...ESPECIALLY for friends and family. Self taught, and still learning, she spends most of her spare time in the kitchen.
When she is not in the kitchen, she really enjoys knitting, painting, wasting endless hours on the internet, hiking with her husband and the girls, traveling, reading, and most of the other stuff regular gals enjoy.
A California native, she is currently residing in Trabuco Canyon, in a small cottage, with her three rescue mutts, her very handsome cat and her extremely delicious husband, in one of the last rural towns in Southern California.
It is in this cottage that she creates delicious and cruelty free delicacies for the world to enjoy. Through her food, she hopes to help people to understand that it is not necessary to murder or torture another living creature in order to have a tasty supper.
