Author Bio

Shannon Richard lives in Tallahassee, FL with her adorable rescue dog Teddy--not that she's biased or anything. She enjoys experimenting with a new recipe in the kitchen or perfecting an old one. It's typically done with a glass of Sauvignon Blanc in hand. She has no shame for the amount of reality T.V. she indulges in, listens to entirely too many podcasts, and is now a plant lady.
