Current Projects

My newest book, The French Women Don’t Get Fat Cookbook, was released on April 27, 2010 and features 150 simple and delicious new recipes. Filled with stories from my childhood in France, my adult life in New York, Paris and Provence, and my extensive travels for business and enjoyment, the cookbook is a stylish and practical lifestyle guide to living well, eating wonderfully and getting the most out of life with the least amount of stress.

My spring travels are taking me to China, Japan, Paris, Provence, Dubai and more. I hope to meet/reconnect with many of my readers on my travels.

And in the works…Hilary Swank's production company bought the film rights to French Women Don't Get Fat; the plan is to make a romantic comedy with my famous French lifestyle message. The script is being adapted and should be ready soon. Stay tuned!
