Caroline Wright is a bon vivant in the truest sense: her stories and recipes revolve around living every moment fully, with love, optimism and good food. Rooted in community, her work and life are creatively intertwined, lending an intimacy to her voice. Caroline shares her experience – from cooking to cancer – as a trusted guide, helping to encourage and uncover the connection that comes from living each moment with joy and gratitude.
Her recipes and articles appear regularly online and in national lifestyle publications, including Bon Appétit, Food and Wine, Food Network, Every Day with Rachael Ray, The Kitchn and Food52. Wright is the author of four cookbooks that range from cakes to Catalan cuisine, though her passion for community and storytelling is woven throughout each book. Her terminal brain cancer diagnosis in 2017 shifted her focus from career to health and family and began authoring children’s books for her two sons. She lives in Seattle, Washington, where she is lovingly known as the soup lady.

On the very day she was told she had brain cancer, Caroline made a promise to herself and her family that she wouldn’t spend a moment of her life ahead looking down into her phone, but instead out into the world. She is a firm believer in connection and community, however, so writes a unique monthly newsletter as a conversation among friends.
