“Living Now Book Awards in the U.S. has recognized One Loaf/One Bowl with a bronze medal (cookbooks-general category). Wow!! This is the 10th award for the cookbook! I started wanting to document what was happening in kitchens and families in Saskatchewan and across Canada during the early days of COVID and the book now seems to have a life of its own. I’m truly grateful for the recognition and thank everyone who contributed and who purchased books from the bottom of my heart. “
