I’ve been quietly working on a very special project for the past two years… and now I finally get to share it with you. SEIZE THE SUPPER — my third cookbook in The Lost Kitchen series — is coming this fall. This book is filled with simple recipes for heartfelt gatherings, but at its core, it’s really about noticing the moments right in front of us before they slip away. It’s about seizing life, savoring a good meal, and sharing it with the people you love most. And please don’t tell my other two cookbooks… but this one? She’s my absolute favorite. My heart can’t wait to share these pages with you! Pre-order your copy now through your favorite bookseller or through the link in my bio.

TAG SALE at TLK! This Saturday, May 2nd from 10am-2pm. We’ve been spring cleaning and gearing up for our 13th season at the mill and I’m retiring some of my ever growing dish collection. I’ve filled our dining room with handmade dish-ware from past dinners, cookbooks from my collection and more. Come take a peek and find a deal! PLUS our bakery will be open for the day and our case will be filled with LOTS of new recipes that we spent the winter working on. Come have a taste!

SPRING CAKE FEAST is coming!!!! Join us Mother’s Day weekend to celebrate the arrival of spring here at The Lost Kitchen. The dining room will be filled with cakes of all kinds — the kind meant for sharing, for savoring, for a second slice you didn’t plan on but are so glad you took. Our dear friend @cigharvey will be with us, signing her beautiful books, Blue Violet and Emerald Drifters. We’ll have bubbles waiting down in the wine cellar, flowers everywhere you turn, and that unmistakable feeling of the season shifting just outside the doors. Tickets drop this Saturday, April 25th at noon EST. You’ll find everything you need on our website (link in bio). Hope you’ll come find us. 🍰 💕

#ad Farm-to-table has never just been about food for me — it’s about knowing the hands behind something, and the care it takes to bring it to life. It’s a way of moving through the world. That’s part of why I chose @volvocarusa ’s Overseas Delivery program for my last car. I was able to shape every detail, then travel with Michael to Sweden to meet it where it was made. We drove through the countryside, shared in the food and rhythm of that place, and spent time close to the source before it made its way home to Maine. There’s something grounding in that — something we hold onto tightly at The Lost Kitchen. It’s a special experience, but not an exclusive one. Reach out to your local Volvo Cars retailer.

SPRING is in the air! The snow here in Maine is melting. The falls beside the mill are flowing. The days are getting longer. Our 2026 season is coming...and WE’RE HIRING!!!! Every role at The Lost Kitchen — whether in the kitchen, the dining room, the gardens, or the shop — contributes to the same shared purpose: making people feel genuinely welcomed, warm, and cared for. With a team that supports one another, pays attention to the details, and cares deeply about the experience we create together, our pride comes from creating memorable experiences through the art of true connection while contributing to a place that values care, intention, and craft. If you are interested in finding out about our available positions, head on over to our website for more information.
