Status Updates From Lovely Recipe

I enjoyed the build up to Sofia and Anna Marie's relationship and the relationship itself after they kissed/got together. I frequently love light and fluffy reads and this was both. 😁

That was an adorable ending to a sweet, fluffy graphic novel. I appreciated the depth in Sofia's relationship with her mother. Both characters felt like they could be real people and I love it when fiction is written that way.

Sofia's mother is on the brink of self reflection and she's realizing how she can be more present for Sofia. Yay!! 😁🎊🎊

I can relate to Sofia wrt telling a parent that they're not being helpful. Been there, done that. 😆🤣🤣

It looks like Sofia and Anna Marie are going to miss prom so that they can help Anna Marie's grandpa. That's kind and thoughtful of them. 🙂❤

I laughed when Anna Marie's kid cousin was being nosy about Anna Marie's love life. It was endearing and comical.

It's endearing that Sofia wanted to eat the mistake or the "dud" cookies. It's fun to eat the small cookies or the ones that aren't aesthetically pleasing. 😆

I agree with what Anna Marie said about how baking is less forgiving than cooking because the measurements need to be exact. That's why I felt more comfortable with baking for the longest time. I liked that baking was precise.

Go Anna Marie for asking out Sofia!! 😁 Their banter is cute. ❤ Also, it was nice of Anna Marie to compliment Sofia's improvement with cooking since she'd been so condescending and rude about her cooking abilities before.

Anna Marie seemed to be condescending with Sofia about her struggles with cooking. Her (meaning Anna Marie) grandfather was a more patient teacher.

I can relate to struggling in the kitchen, but I've never been that bad. Just nervous and skittish, but pretty good once I put my mind to it and showed determination.

I didn't mean to read *THAT* much in one sitting. I became hooked. Lol!! 😆
