A reminder to stop rushing through meals and use cooking as practice in presence, plus a special recipe from Trinity's new cookbook, her favorite audiobooks, and basket weaving kits!
Since launching Golde in 2017, Trinity has grown it into a go-to line of superfood essentials, becoming the youngest woman of color to debut a brand at Sephora. We’ve always been drawn to her — her eye for beauty, her lived-in approach to wellness, and the way she makes everyday living intentional.
Make sure you read all the way to the bottom for a sneak peek of one of our favorite recipes from her new book — a simple, delicious jam you’ll want to make on repeat!!
Author, entrepreneur, cook, and chef extraordinaire!
Hi, hello! My name is Trinity Mouzon Woffordand I’m an author and entrepreneur. I run a superfood biz called Golde that I started back in 2017. I’m a 4th gen Upstate New Yorker, living in the Hudson Valley with my husband and two daughters. As I’m writing this, the trees here are finally giving way to Spring, buds creeping into view. Lately my weekends have been a lot fuller than usual, because my first book just came out! Eating at Homeis a cookbook celebrating our everyday mealtimes as a pathway to feeling more present.
Even with all the book tour happenings, I’m still keeping my most important rituals around here sacred. On Saturday mornings, my family and I head to our local farmers market and load up on fresh produce for the week ahead. Spring can be slim pickings in our climate, so it’s still a lot of simple greens, potatoes, and the first of the early carrots (they’re extra sweet from the cold). Sundays are “Pancake Sunday” here — my husband makes the best ones with discard from our sourdough starter. The recipe’s in the book!
I’m so deeply proud to share this cookbook because it’s really an invitation to stop rushing through our meals. In this era, we’re all constantly racing to get on to the next thing. We’re balancing work, family, our own health, and trying to self-actualize in there, too. Cooking feels like a slog that’s in conflict with all of those priorities, so we’ve got the endless stream of 5-minute meals and protein bars. In my experience, when I prioritize cooking and eating (without distractions) in my daily routine, I feel more present and certainly more productive, too.
