hi, i'm chelsea!

You'll find me just outside of Portland, Oregon, hopefully in my kitchen with a big glass of Willamette Valley red wine and sous viding salmon my husband caught that week, unwinding after a day of recipe development, food photography, and marketing freelance work. Say hi on Instagram: @the.cookbook.lab

Welcome to the Cookbook Lab Chronicles! As I write and self-publish cookbook #3, I’m taking you behind the scenes of the process with a weekly vlog.
