“Are these the scones from your book?” My parents were in town from Ohio last week, and I made the Apricot and Sage Cream Scones from The Corners of Their Mouth Issue 1 on their last day here. Not only did they recognize them, they loved them, and asked a lot of questions about scone making, ingredients and food chemistry. 🥰 I am often nervous about sharing my zines with my family and people who have known me since teenagerhood because a lot of my personal food essays have to do with recovery from an abusive relationship that they actually witnessed but didn’t know the full extent of. But to have people read my work and hear me, and to have my non-foodie parents get excited about a recipe and an essay I wrote is really mind-blowing to me. . . . . #scones #homemadescones #cookingasrecovery #apricotjam #noyeaux #apricotscones #ourqueerkitchen #nonbinarybakers #thispostgotreal https://www.instagram.com/illmakeitmyself/p/BwXtuCNHiwH/?igshid=1cd4fzj1el235
