My name is Mandi, and I’m both a foodie and a bookaholic. I’m in heaven with both a good book and great food.

I’ve spent the majority of my 27 years being entirely too picky when it comes to food, but the last few years have been pretty eye opening for me. I’ll try almost anything once. Usually.

The Literary Cook is my attempt to do what I love. I’ll write about the books I’m reading and food I have made, tried, or want to try. I am by no means a professional at either of the things I’m attempting to do here; I’m just a girl with passion that is begging to be shared.

This is pretty much a literary and culinary free for all!

I hope you join me for the ride.
