Long before the novels, Jane’s passion for storytelling took her straight to one of her other great joys - food, and specifically, baking. Using her skills as a storyteller, Jane began to delve into the art and science of food while writing for the now-gone online food magazine, “Local In Season.”

As a result, Jane not only cooks up a great story, she feeds your soul at the same time, with homemade breads, pastries, and culinary delights of all sorts!
