Hey, I’m Julie. Do you know why I look so happy in this picture? I’m about to eat.

I’ve loved food, and have found comfort in recipes, for as long as I can remember. My mom likes to tell this story about three year old me, who asked when I could cook for myself- she told me I could cook myself when I could read a recipe myself, and so I went off and learned how to read by reading cookbooks. I’ve loved being in the kitchen ever since.

I’m now lucky enough to get to write about food in The Globe and Mail and other publications, and talk about it on CBC Radio across Canada. And I’m on the verge of releasing my fourteenth cookbook! You can order it, and my previous three books, here.

I’m so glad you’re here! If you ever have questions, feel free to email me!
