This unique cookbook is both a work of art and valuable reference book. It features over 100 hand drawn recipes from Marcella's Travels throughout Latin America.

This collection includes many of Marcella's favorite dishes, desserts, and drinks inspired by her travels in Central and South America; tamales, ceviche, empanadas, flan and many more favorites from countries including Mexico, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru and Puerto Rico. She has also included lots of pages about ingredients that are less common in the US including prickly pear, yuca root, and epazote. 

The book includes an overview of Latin American cheeses available in the US, and pages describing various methods of chili preparation, how to prepare cactus, and tips for frying foods. Marcella has also devoted a page to her favorite tools in the kitchen; things that will make cooking this cuisine more efficient and more fun.
The cookbook is a hardcover, 9.5 x 11.25, printed on premium 100#GSM paper.

From Slow Cooked Pork to Avocado Pineapple Salad, Marcella's second book, Comida Cubana, beautifully illuminates a variety of Cuban Classics. Marcella traveled to Cuba in 2016 and cooked with over a dozen people on the island, sketching and recording her travels along the way. Her experiences unfold in the headnotes of every page and the book is comprised of over 100 distinctive hand drawn recipes in watercolor and pen and ink. 

Similar to her first book, Comida Cubana is an art piece and a cookbook in one, but dives deeper into the history and origin of recipes, and includes her vibrant watercolors on every page.

The 2022 Calendar is here! It features the following quote: 

If I’m an advocate for anything it’s to move....Walk in someone else’s shoes or at least eat their food. -Anthony Bourdain

Each year I create a calendar to honor and raise awareness for a social justice-related cause where the purchase of the Calendar supports a chosen non-profit. I always try to connect the artwork to the nonprofit in some way.  

This year, I'm happy to share that all profits from the 2022 Calendar will go to the organization, Heard. The mission of Heard is to provide mental health support and make a lasting positive impact on the lives of those working in the food and beverage industry.  Anyone currently employed in the industry can access services including counseling to substance abuse and suicide prevention.

My intention for this year's artwork is to honor and celebrate the life of Anthony Bourdain. The chef turned author and travel show host left a lasting impact on the culinary and travel world with curiosity, and unabashed honesty.  Through his writing and TV shows, he focused on the exploration of culture, cuisine, and the human condition.  He taught us about the world in a way that was never clear cut or absolute, and left us often asking more questions rather than providing answers.  Bourdain’s death by suicide in June of 2018 was a shock to everyone, and called for a focus on mental health and wellness within our society.

Food illustration and the exploration of international cuisine have been at the core of my artwork for many years, as well as the recognition of the richness that favorite restaurants and the hospitality industry consistently add to our lives.

The strain of an international pandemic has challenged us all, especially those in the food and beverage industry, with its unpredictable and taxing environment.   My hope is that in some small way, the financial support from the sale of this calendar will offer encouragement to this hard-working community seeking help for their unique challenges.  

Please join me in honoring the life of Anthony Bourdain and supporting the industry he impacted so profoundly.

The Enjoy Every Sandwich design is based on a quote by the late rockstar Warren Zevon, who was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer and was given one year of life to live in 2002. During a David Letterman appearance, upon being asked if Zevon had any advice for the rest of us, (now that he was aware of his own mortality), Zevon replied, "Enjoy Every Sandwich".

May we all live life to its fullest as Zevon explained so well in this famous moment in television history.
