Emotional Support Cookie
is NOT a cookbook.
Nor is it a self-help book.
But if you read between the sprinkles, you may find within the joy of both, and so, so much more.
is an artistically edible ode to the power of mindful baking, positive affirmations and, let's face it- the s**t tonne of sprinkles that still litter the author's house. Within the pages of this baking-come-coffee-table book, readers will discover more than 100 vibrant photographs of delicious sugar cookies inscribed with positive affirmations: ready to bolster and uplift, inspire, or simply add a little sparkle to an otherwise dreary day.
