Life from Scratch: Family Traditions That Start with You

From the television host, actress, and mother of three, a fabulous collection of season-by-season recipes, holiday hacks, birthday rituals, and date night ideas for creating wonderful family celebrations and cherished memories.

Television
personality Vanessa Lachey is a dedicated mom of three, a supportive wife to
singer Nick Lachey, and someone who freely shares her “perfectly imperfect”
home and family life. But like many people, Vanessa didn’t come from a family
whose traditions were passed down from generation to generation. Her mom left
when she was nine, and when she began her own family, Vanessa had to rely on
her own imagination to create celebrations and milestone markers that would
become annual rituals.

In Life
from Scratch, Vanessa shares personal stories, ideas, delicious recipes,
and parenting tips you can use to make your own celebrations unique and
unforgettable. Inside you’ll discover the simple gift-giving custom Vanessa
shares with her best girlfriends each year; the date-night tradition that she
and Nick swear by; and her fool-proof recipe for “authentic” Chicken Adobo she
serves to family and friends.

A fun,
uplifting yearlong guide that celebrates families that color outside the lines,
Life from Scratch will inspire people to make each season, and each
special moment, their own.
