PGM 24 | The Evolution of a Cook: Tara O'Brady of Seven Spoons
This week, I'm talking with the smart, super talented voice behind the popular food blog, and now book of the same name, Tara O'Brady of Seven Spoons. This conversation was a real treat, and I hugely enjoyed the hour we spent together. Tara writes her blog and her book with a personable voice; she comes across as both authority and friend. Her goal with her book, as she writes, was to provide you a seat at her own table, and be the friend you are talking to as you prepare a meal. She accomplished that and more, and her book has been released to critical acclaim. She's open, honest and very forthcoming in this interview, and you'll get to know her like never before as she speaks about coming into her own in the kitchen.
