🔥📈It's been one month since the campaign ended! 🥳🔥

As you can likely guess, this has been a bit of a bustling month! My life is both: 1) completely upended. 2) EXHILARATING. I've been chiseling at this mountain of stretch bonuses for the last month! 🏔  I'm also a bit terrified to not meet my original timeline, so I'm doing everything I can to be on time! 📖

🍸 The Intro to Hyrulian Alchemy and Bartending is Complete! 🧪

33 brand new pages 📝 , drink recipes from the tropical Noble Pursuit piña colada 🍹🍍 , to Moka Chai's Mocha Chai ☕️ 🍫  - a spicy loose leaf chai blend inspired by The Minish Cap, and a rainbow of Chu Jelly 🌈 fruit smoothies 🍌 !

I've tried to include something refreshing for everyone here, because THIS CHAPTER EXISTS BECAUSE OF YOU. 🎉  It would not have been possible without you. Find someone nearby to hug you for me! ♥️

🎊 To celebrate, I've just shared the 👑 royal milk tea inspired Chateau Romani recipe ☕️ 🥛  in the recipe section on our Discord! 🎊 (let me know if there's anything in particular you want to try from the drinks in your unlocked stretch bonuses!)

"Combine fresh caramelized sugar with a dash of black tea and milk for a steamy cuppa, that also grants unlimited magic! Serve in Chateau Romani milk jars for an authentic Milk Bar look!" 🔥

The Pre-Order Page is Up!? 👩‍🍳

I'm not sure if I let you know, but I set up a pre-order page! If you have a friend who missed it, they can order now (👑 the last of the Master Editions are there too), but! Pre-orders will be going out AFTER all Kickstarter people have received their cookbooks, and while it does include all the bonus recipes/chapters, it doesn't include the Kickstarter exclusive extras (like Master Edition leather bookmarks, certificates, etc) 💌

You can click here for the pre-order page!

The Menu and Secret Recipes Chapter is Underway!

From 🌳 Kokiri Forest Feasts🌲 to the 😈 Monster Mash 🌕 to the 👑 Hylian Royal Menu ⚔️ , this chapter has 15 new recipes, paired with 15 themed menus. This chapter is now my dawn to dusk life, as I'm finalizing everything!

What are menus, exactly? I'm glad you asked! 🎁

Each menu include a themed list of recipes in the book (with page numbers), to be served together with the new recipe for a multi-course dinner (or buffet, or banquet, etc). So the Monster Mash Menu might incorporate a main entrée, side dish, soup, dessert, and a drink, that all fit the "Monster Mash" theme. This way, you can flip through the menus to peruse recipes that go together, for dinner ideas, or themed Zelda party ideas! :D

Indexes, Conversions, and Thank you's, Oh My! 💜

And work is still continuing on the rest! Once this Menu chapter is finalized, I have a gigantic list of edits, checks, and add-ons, in addition to the finalization of page numbers, then indexing! 🔥 Then the interior will be done! 😮

Thank you all for your wonderful comments last week on the update! It was so nice to hear from you, and you are all very kind regarding update schedule! I have decided to aim for once a week, and if I am late, I'll try not to beat myself up about it! :D But if you ever want an update, please just let me know! I'm also available/keeping up on the Discord as often as I can!

Do let me know if you have any particular curiosities regarding the cookbook and this process! I'm never sure what you might want to hear about!

I hope you enjoy today!! I'm thinking of you!! ♥️
