From Goodreads:
Witty, warm, and poignant, food blogger Sasha Martin's memoir about cooking her way to happiness and self-acceptance is a culinary journey like no other.
Over the course of 195 weeks, food writer and blogger Sasha Martin set out to cook—and eat—a meal from every country in the world. As cooking unlocked the memories of her rough-and-tumble childhood and the loss and heartbreak that came with it, Martin became more determined than ever to find peace and elevate her life through the prism of food and world cultures. From the tiny, makeshift kitchen of her eccentric, creative mother, to a string of foster homes, to the house from which she launched her own cooking adventure, Martin's heartfelt, brutally honest memoir reveals the power of cooking to bond, to empower, and to heal—and celebrates the simple truth that happiness is created from within.

From Me:
I'm a sucker for a memoir, a sucker for a food book, and a sucker for a blogger who sticks to a goal!
I just now looked at her blog, but I think I already love it.
4 stars...

Yep, I love memoirs, food books, and books by bloggers so this sounds perfect for me.
I'll be adding this to my TBR. I do love it when food is immersed in a book.
