TYPO ALERT: the sentence should read "I’ve been internet friends with the couple who opened Stacks for a long time and I can’t wait to support them and their brand new shop! "

I kind of figured it was a typo. The sentence was just too weird otherwise! Or really mean but you seem like the antithesis of meanness so I was betting on typo.

I had a brief moment of panic at the "last for the forseeable future" line, ran to the comments, and am relieved to see that you are not actually breaking up with us.

WOW. This post:

1. This speaks to my SOUL. 😭

2. “Last for the foreseeable future” --I understand, but still: 😭

3. You called me “dear reader” 😭

Can’t wait for my book to arrive. I will savor that feeling of opening one of your new books for the first time 😭

It almost feels like you're breaking up with us. "It's not you, it's me" vibes. Thank you both for all the laughs, recipes, encouragement, and knowledge over the years. I'll continue to use these books as long as I'm still cooking.

I'm never breaking up with you guys! This book is just the last one for awhile. I'll keep cooking and sharing recipes online forever though❤️

I just want to thank you for pointing out how women are shamed into hiding our hunger and for satiating it in ways society deems "too much". This article really spoke to me and I appreciate you just pointing it out for all to see. I love everything you and Matt bring to the table (pun intended) and cannot wait to cook these new recipes and share them with the women in my life who deserve to have their bellies filled with whatever they desire!

I’m sorry I missed the cooking live today! Dang it.. but this.. thank you for this.. Also I want you to know I have a cookbook collection problem.. i like to read them, some of them I cook from, some of them are inspiration. i don’t want to even say how many. But your books are my style.. I know I can cook any recipe from any of your books and share it with whomever. No flops. If I had to give all of them away 1 by 1, 101 Fast As Fuck would be the last cookbook you could pry from my death grip... excited to dig into the new book! Congrats on #5!!
