From the award-winning author of An Everlasting Meal comes a record of daily delights from inside the kitchen and just outside it; designed to help you find joy every day.

From the pleasure of picking sun-warmed cherries to the comfort of a perfectly cooked meal, Adler’s reflections range from short, lyrical musings - a series of phrases, a list of words, a quick poem - to longer, thought-provoking meditations. All in all, they represent the kitchen (and adjacent) happinesses of one year.

Step into a world where cooking becomes a meditative, soothing retreat. Adler brings her signature warmth and poetic charm to this daily devotional of sorts. With her gentle guidance, even the most routine kitchen tasks become opportunities for reflection. Her voice is like a trusted friend’s—knowledgeable, comforting, and endlessly inspiring.
