THANK YOU
Cheesy as it sounds, writing this book has been a dream come true. It’s been empowering, invigorating and emotional all at the same time.
The idea that someone, somewhere, might follow one of my recipes and enjoy my food blows me away, so thank you to every single one of you for purchasing this book and to everyone who has supported me along the way. It means a lot. I hope you love it as much as I do.
To Pete, I think you are incredible and I am so thankful to have you by my side. Thank you for listening to my constant chatter, my wild ideas – good and bad! – for trying my recipes, even when you’re so full you could burst, and for being the best friend a girl could ask for. You are my rock, and I couldn’t have done any of this without you and your support. I love you.
Rowan, thank you for taking a chance on me, for getting it and understanding what I wanted to say – I appreciate it no end. And for all your knowledge and hard work; I love what we have produced and feel very lucky to have had such creative freedom. It’s been inspiring from start to end.
Laura Edwards, the girl with the vision – who’d have thought all those years ago, when we were both eager assistants, that we’d be making books together! Thank you for being so dedicated and for pouring your talent into Stirring Slowly. Your pictures leave me speechless – and we know that doesn’t happen often. I think you are the bee’s knees. Isla, now the shoots are over I feel like I’ve lost a limb! Thank you for being such a brilliant assistant/right-hand woman and for being a truly wonderful friend. I’m going to miss our Toffee time. To the rest of the shoot crew – Kendal, Vinny, Sam, Abi, and Anna – thank you all so much for your hard work and for being so enthusiastic and kind. Our shoot days have been some of my favourite days, so thank you all for helping make them so much fun. Also, Anna, you have gone down as being the most efficient prop carer I’ve ever met!
Adrienne, I feel so privileged that you agreed to work on this book and I appreciate every thought and idea you have had – your talent is truly astounding. I can’t believe how many happy tears there have been over font choices and page proofs! Thank you for executing it all so beautifully.
