Carole, just out of curiosity... do you not feel like, for your paid subscription, that you've actually received a pretty significant amount of serious, dedicated, informative content from Alison?

Carole, just out of curiosity... do you not feel like, for your paid subscription, that you've actually received a pretty significant amount of serious, dedicated, informative content from Alison? I mean... she IS a cookbook author & food writer, so she's obviously **going to advertise her book here** ... why wouldn't she? Homegirl's gotta make a living, why can't she do so - on her own newsletter, that she writes & edits herself - any damn time she needs to? Its not like we don't get good content here... this newsletter is massive (to me... I've barely cracked the surface of how much information here there is to absorb)... So... i'm just wondering what the negativity is for. And also... just my 2 cents... isn't it kinda great to be able to support and celebrate a fellow woman's achievements? Isn't it a beautiful thing when we, as women, can lift each other up, champion each others' hard work & professional rigor, to delight in each others' moments of being able to make a wage & build economic independence? I'm happy to celebrate Alison's career, accomplishments & creations b/c she comes by it honestly. The woman **works.** How about we raise a toast to each other when any of us takes a risk on a professional or creative venture? A victory for one of us is a victory for all of us. That's the best way forward, I think. Women lifting UP other women, not grousing & nit-picking at barely-problematic, perceived (faux) short-comings. (Just a thought - not trying to be rude or insensitive to your concern). Peace to you, tho, no matter what! Have a great night! x.
