"I get up in the morning and write until I've backed myself into a corner; the next day I get up and write myself out of that corner." - Anthony Bourdain #writing #food #culinary #publishing #foodwriting
A poster with thirteen book covers, and the text: "2025 Top Titles in US Public Libraries: Genre: Food and Cooking."
Are you a #cookbook lover? Enjoy #foodwriting? Wondering what the top titles in this area were in US public libraries, during 2025? Look no further! We've compiled genre lists, with "Be Ready When the Luck Happens: A Memoir" by Ina Garten coming first in the category! #💙📚 #Booksky
The cover of a hardcover first edition of Anthony Bourdain's book Kitchen Confidential. Shows Bourdain, young and dark-haired in his chef whites, staring directly at the camera, left arm bent at the elbow and across his chest to clasp his right arm, extended downward. There's a sword hilt at his waist and the photograph is taken through the window of Bourdain's restaurant at the time, Les Halles (this text is on the glass of the window).
the acknowledgements page of Kitchen Confidential which ends with the two word phrase, "Cooks Rule."
“No one understands & appreciates the American Dream of hard work leading to material rewards better than a non-American.”
- Anthony Bourdain, Kitchen Confidential: Adventures in the Culinary Underbelly (2000)

A close-up still life shows a large mound of white granulated sugar in the foreground, with loose brown sugar clustered behind it. A small glass container of dark molasses sits partially embedded in the sugar, holding a metal spoon that rests inside the thick liquid. A second metal spoon lies in the brown sugar, its bowl partially buried. Nestled beside the brown sugar is a small molded brown sugar bear, its surface matte and slightly textured. The sugars appear dry and granular, while the molasses is glossy and viscous. The image emphasizes differences in color, texture, density, and form between the materials, with no human figures present and no visible motion.

A surrealist, hyper-realistic macro shot of a jagged piece of Kendal Mint Cake resting on a dark, slate-grey rock. The mint cake is shaped like a miniature mountain peak, with its crystalline sugar texture catching a sharp, cold morning light. The background is a blurred, moody Cumbrian landscape with deep greens and misty blues, creating a high-contrast, tactile aesthetic.
"I tried to write a poem about Kendal Mint Cake for this collection. It was too sweet and short-lived. Stick to the poems about mountains—they last longer. *Cumbria In Verse - Lakes To Fells In Poetry*, out March 1st.
