Author Information...
The Spice Chicks of Drip are three southern mommas of a combined 13 kids that found a connection between cooking as therapy and as an act of love. Gathering around a table creates lasting memories and recipes that are passed down through generations. Residing in the Texas Hill Country outside of Austin, they synced together to create spicechicksofdrip.com cooking blog and a formal catering service. These recipes are a reflection of some of the meals they have served for local wineries and parties. They each bring a unique perspective to Texas cooking.
Bekie, a mom of 3, has been published in several culinary magazine and cookbooks, such as Taste of Home, Sandra Lee Semi-Homemade, and Food for Thought. She also appeared as a guest on Food Network’s Sandra Lee Semi-Homemade Show, and was named Hill Country Top Chef Runner-up in 2008. Her love of food began early, when her mom gave her the green light to prepare meals as young as 8.
Kim, a mom of 7, the veteran of the group, has over 25 years of cooking experience specializing in seafood with a flare, and Texas meat for the masses. Cooking for large venues, Kim has perfected comfort food that is layered with bold flavors. Surrounded by people who love to prepare soul food such as her grandmother, the quintessential southern cook, and her dad, whose pallet was before his time, she began cooking early on. The influences of growing up in Panama, living all over the U.S. for the military, travels to Europe, and Texan living, all fed her desire to cook great food.
Sara, a mom of 3, a local sous chef, is often called the Soup Queen with her ability to create a soup out of anything into a magical masterpiece. Disguising squash as liquid gold, she has the talent to turn all children into veggie lovers. With creative 5-star menu combinations, her craft is ever expanding. Although, her food is often best shared as medicine to those around her. Friends even swear on her amazing homemade chicken stock.
These ladies cook from scratch and kick the box (most of the time) to the curb. It’s a labor of love and sometimes…dishes, but it’s worth the memories. This book is dedicated to their families, and late family members that inspired their love of cooking. These recipes are mostly indulgent, and meant to be celebrated on holidays and special occasions.

author of Avoiding Self Imposed Adversities
From the beginning, and throughout the process of publishing my first book, I felt that I was in the hands of a pro. Dana always took the time to answer my questions in detail and swiftly, and if she didn't have 100% confidence, she researched the question and got back to me. I was very pleased with her and I am also thankful that I was paired with her as an Author Rep.

I am looking forward to our next project together. I have recommended Outskirts Press to several freelance authors in my area. Thank you for making a potentially hectic journey so enjoyable and so satisfying.

author of Children: My Heritage - A Testimony
The one-on-one with Lisa was great. Especially the phone call picking out styles, font, cover template etc. She even got a vote on the color. I so wanted to have my daughter's painting as the art work on the cover and she gave me a way to do that. Her guidance helped turn my dream into a reality and sometimes it is still hard to believe until I look at my book. Thank you.

Their process is simple and seamless with everything happening in a timely manner, giving authors complete control over how their book will appear inside and out. And the people there are fantastic. They’re friendly, knowledgeable, courteous, patient and quick to reply to emails. What more can an author ask?
Needless to say, I’ve found a home here at Outskirts Press.
