Rachel Hope Cleves has written a book full of sex and transgression. The book is all about food, the development of restaurants, and how we left some of the prejudices about good food and sex behind us in the world of foodies. Today we think of healthy eating as our path to good sex.

You can also find Rachel on Blue Sky.

If this podcasts interests you, I recommend a conversation that Rachel and I mentioned on this podcast. A conversation with John Birdsall about his book The Man Who Ate Too Much.

Do remember Saveur magazine from the 1990’s? Well, it’s back. Kat Craddock, who grew up reading and admiring the magazine, who found her first dream job working there in the test kitchen, is now the Editor and CEO.

We talk to Kat about Saveur and its new incarnation. Listen, it’s on Tip of the Tongue.

Kat’s New Book written with Dr. Marie Pierre St. Onge

Caroline Chambers has made her much deserved reputation of Substack. Her new book, What to Cook When You Don’t Feel Like Cooking is out there. She tells her story and muses on the future. Listen. It’s on Tip of the Tongue.

You can read more about Caro on her website.

The interview is fun and personal. The cookbook has great ideas for food that is either very easy, when that is what you need, and also food that is a bit more elaborate for when you are in the mood.
