Nicole Gulotta is a writer and recipe developer. She's the author of Eat This Poem: A Literary Feast of Recipes Inspired by Poetry, and pens a blog by the same name. She received an MFA from Vermont College of Fine Arts and studied literature at the University of California, Santa Barbara. She lives in Los Angeles with her husband and son.

About Eat This Poem:

Food and poetry are two of life's essential ingredients. In the same way salt seasons ingredients to bring out their flavor, poetry seasons our lives; when celebrated together, our everyday moments and meals are richer and more meaningful. Each of the twenty-five inspiring poems—from such poets as Marge Piercy, Louise Glück, Mark Strand, Mary Oliver, Billy Collins, Jane Hirshfield—are accompanied by seventy-five recipes that bring the richness of words to life in our kitchen, on our plate, and through our palate. Eat This Poem opens us up to fresh ways of accessing poetry and lends new meaning to the foods we cook.

in the show notes. And it includes a 13 page playbook, a discount code to Tranquility. And then it also,

1:22.2

of course, is the one hour video where I talk about eight key ways. and I actually came up with nine, because I just

1:29.7

couldn't get rid of one, and I came up with the idea to include this piece around activism

for number nine. And someone who was like, well, that should be the stem of the flower.
