Ellen Pauley Goff
“The smell of butter hugs me the moment I slide into the peace of the kitchen. I inhale, nostrils greedy. Our neighbors and customers are important, sure. Our town has relied on the Frost family’s food and baking magic for decades, ever since the Holler was no more than a whisper. And a Farewitch is nothing without a town, without the folks who depend on her culinary cures.
But the kitchen… I might not be the Farewitch my mom is, but the kitchen is home.”
― Ellen Pauley Goff, The Farewitch of Foxe Holler

Katie Cicatelli-Kuc
“One cup exactly," I say quietly.

"Are you seriously whispering?" he asks.

I look away from my cup of cream just long enough to glare at him.

"Does the volume of someone's voice also affect how a recipe turns out?" he says.

I keep glaring at him.

"Should I sing to the cream?”
― Katie Cicatelli-Kuc, Pumpkin Spice & Everything Nice
