Somewhere down the road, all of this is going to like make sense.

And you're going to figure out how to put it together and make it make sense.

Hey, Bomb Squad, welcome to Radio Cherry Bomb, the show that's all about women and food.

I'm your host, Carrie Diamond, coming to you from Brooklyn, New York.

Today's guest is Chef Deborah Van Trees, the creative director and owner of Twisted Soul Cookhouse

and Pores in Atlanta, Georgia.

Deborah is also author of the Twisted Soul Cookbook, Modern Soul Food with Global Flavors.

It's her debut cookbook, and it's all about Deborah's very personal take on Southern cuisine,

inspired by the many hats she's worn in life. Those of flight attendant, world traveler,

mom, culinary school student, entrepreneur, and of course, chef. If you are a regular listener,

you know Deborah's been on the show a few times, and I am thrilled to welcome her back.

First, a little housekeeping. We would love for you to consider joining Cherry Bomb's membership

program. You can become an official member of the Bomb Squad for $40 a year and get special perks,

like inclusion on our members directory, on Cherrybom.com, and access access to invitation only events. During our recent

Julia Jubilee conference, we hosted a members-only event with the producer and the production

designer of Julie and Julia. That was a great event. For more details and to join, visit cherrybom.

Before we get to Deborah, here's a word from our sponsor, Tilea Beerco.

Tilea Beerco is New York City's first female-founded taproom and brewery.

That word does not float off my tongue.
