Summer Offer

A little thank you!

I currently have 39 paid subscribers and would love to reach 100 by the end of the year!

---

Thank you for being a free subscriber and reading my newsletter—you are literally making my dreams of being a food writer come true.

As a big thank you, I am running a Summer offer of 20% off paid subscription through August 31st. Your $24 dollars can change my entire life. It’s only $2 dollars a month or .46 cents per post.

Please consider redeeming the summer offer and becoming a paid supporter of my work.

There isn’t a long list of benefits for my paid subscribers. I do send out at least one recipe per month that’s exclusively for paid subscribers. Otherwise, the funds from the subscriptions help me manage and run my newsletter. The money goes towards recipe testing, photos, editing, recipe development, videos, and of course hours and hours of research and work. Also, remember, supporting small publications means having more diverse voices, perspectives, and stories.

Your paid subscription will help me make this zine a reality!

With each new paid subscriber, I can spend more and more time each week working on my newsletter instead of using—wasting is how it actually feels—that time to work my other jobs.

A life of a writer in our society is not easy, help me make it a little less horrible.

Your financial support also gives me an opportunity to take on more writing projects outside my newsletter. I have been developing a couple of recipes for Serious Eats—I’m super excited to share them with you all.

My second project is a publication of my first food history article. I wrote on Crimean Tatar culinary culture, specifically the crucial role Crimean Tatar women played in preserving their identity through the practice of savory pie making. The culinary culture of Crimean Tatars has very little representation in food media especially here in the U.S. It is of utter importance that we help promote their culinary culture during this difficult time of oppression, forced occupation, and illegal annexation.

Please let me know if you have any questions! I am always happy to help any way I can.

Thank you! ¡Muchas gracias! Moltes gràcies (Catalan)! Дякую or Dyakuyu (Ukrainian)!
