Show Notes
We have a special mini series debuting today in partnership with Fisher & Paykel called “The New Home.” Over the next few weeks, host Kerry Diamond will be in conversation with some amazing women about their lives, their kitchens, and their inspiring careers. We’re starting with an icon who has influenced Cherry Bombe with her food styling, photography, and wholehearted approach to home cooking. It’s Donna Hay, the culinary legend from Australia.
Donna shares how eating crepes in Paris was an aha moment early in her career, how a fashion editor helped develop her sense of whimsy, and more from her wonderful origin story. She also talks about her new book, “Sunshine, Lemons, and Sea Salt: A Celebration of Modern Coastal Home Cooking,” which is the first of her 30+ cookbooks that she shot at home.
