My name is Sunita Yousuf, and I’m the founder of The Wannabe Cook, a Columbus, Ohio–based brand built around mindful cooking, whole spices, and storytelling. I’m originally from Bangladesh and moved to the U.S. for college, which was the first time I was really on my own with food. At first, that freedom felt exciting—I was finally able to eat all the fast food and processed food I wanted after growing up in a home where my parents strongly believed in home-cooked meals. But after the novelty wore off, I started missing the warmth, comfort, and feeling of food made at home.
That’s when cooking slowly became something much bigger for me. What started in my dorm kitchen turned into a ritual: an evening way to slow down, step away from screens, and reconnect with natural ingredients, familiar aromas, and the nostalgia of the meals I grew up with. Over time, cooking became more than just making dinner—it became a way to create comfort, share stories, and bring people together. I fell in love with the sensory side of it too: touching whole spices, smelling food as it cooks, hearing things sauté in the pan. There’s something grounding and joyful about the entire process.
Sunita Yousuf
Alongside building The Wannabe Cook, I also work as a Senior Product Manager at Retail Industry, where I focus on turning supply chain data into insights and scalable solutions. In both parts of my life, I love taking complex ideas and turning them into experiences that feel meaningful, approachable, and connecting—whether that’s through shared meals, spice challenges, or smarter analytics.
Over the past two years, I’ve walked nearly 3,000 miles—roughly the length of the Sahara Desert. That’s a lot of steps, and if only there were a magic carpet to keep up! I intentionally disconnect everyday and try to watch the sunset as a nice segway from the serious part of the day. I say, ‘If mornings rush you, let sunsets stop you’.
I collect old-school and traditional recipes—handed down, farm-style, or just remembered by people—bringing a slice of nostalgia to my home, far from the internet.
About the Book:
Sunita & Grandma
This book features recipes from the 60s and 70s, when my grandmother taught home economics—cooking, crafting, and more. She had a recipe book with 80–85 handwritten recipes, and I took the time to recreate all of them. Ten of these recipes are included in this book. Recreating them allowed me to reconnect with my roots, relive the comforting smells of home, and find a sense of grounding. It reminded me how meaningful it can be to spend time on things that truly matter. I drew inspiration from ideas like the Blue Zones — regions where people live longer because of mindful habits, community living, and home-cooked meals.
Journaling prompts guide you to connect food with emotions, helping you see how cooking can be both therapy and a way to honor the past.
I believe anything we can try doing for two weeks in a row has a higher chance of becoming a natural habit and slowly starts to feel less like work, and comes more naturally – Turns out, home economics wasn’t just about cooking—it was training for life. 🥕 Chopping vegetables, stirring pots, and experimenting recipes teaches patience, focus, and even mindfulness. Spending 15 days trying small, simple habits in the kitchen, and suddenly life skills you forgot you had start coming back—like a gentle reboot for daily life.

<—- IT’S EARLY BIRD RELEASE TIME & LOOK WHAT JUST WENT LIVE!! HAPPY MONDAY & HAPPY NEW WEEK!! I can’t believe we’re almost April when Christmas feels like it was just last month. I miss the Holidays, but I am loving all the extra daylight and happy sunshine right now. I can read print books longer into the evening without having to worry about lamps. 😉
BTW – 11 early birds below including 4 or 5 of our original indie favorites that have just released something new here. YAY US!!! 😀
Three things:
1.) I did absolutely nothing physical this weekend other than my trip to Costco and carrying in groceries. LOL!!! I am still all scratched up and bruised from last weekends 3-day landscaping frenzy. Oh one thing we did do, was refresh a gorgeous, Ralph Lauren vintage leather “bomber” jacket that needed conditioning but also a bit of “color refreshing” in worn areas that looked extra-patchy instead of a nice, subtly “worn-in” patina. This product worked wonders!! Absolutely corrected a few issues, and now the jacket is gorgeous again.
2.) I did play in my Poshmark Closet this weekend and continue to add new stuff every day. I literally could add my clothes in it on a daily daily, and have enough from my actual closet to keep it actively “new” for a year. LOL!!! I do have a bit of a clothing addiction, that Im trying to pare down significantly. Not to a minimalist level (as much as I love minimalism, my closet is never truly going to be even close to that level) but definitely cut my closet in half, so that I can actually SEE the pieces I love and want to wear, so I can see them & be reminded to actually wear them.
3.) What are 2 of your absolute favorite clothing pieces? Like… one that is you ALWAYS go to holy grail piece that you wear all the time, and won’t part with, and what is your favorite piece that you never wear but want to so badly? I just gave up my favorite pair of jeans (I just love the fit, the cut, the “wash”). They were my Hudson Beth Baby Boot cut jeans (“baby” boot cut ’cause they are boot cut, but not too wide/flared at the bottom – which is what I had always been looking for – subtle boot cut is my thing, and Hudson made those). But… I can’t fit into them anymore. So into my posh closet they went, and they got snatched up and now they are gone forever. Oh wow. Wait a minute!!! I had NO idea Amazon sold these, and I could buy myself another pair in my current size. YAY ME!!! 😀 ————->
FORCED PROXIMITY!! SHE WAS SHACKED UP WITH HER BODYGUARD…
“…A new, sexy standalone from New York Times Bestsellers Vi Keeland & Penelope Ward
The last thing I needed was a live-in bodyguard. And I definitely didn’t want him. Six foot two, with broad shoulders that were impossible to ignore and a talent for getting in my way, Wes Callahan was a walking bad decision.
But when you’re the daughter of a notorious mob boss, apparently your opinions stop mattering the moment your father ignites another war. I’d spent my entire life trying to escape that crooked world—new name, new city, newfound freedom. At least until I was suddenly shacked up with my new bodyguard.
BELLA JEWEL’S LATEST ROCK STAR ROMANCE & IT’S A DUET CONCLUSION!!
“…Come on a journey as Violet and Travis go on a wild ride together, in hopes of finding that happily ever after. This is the FINAL book in a series of two.
Two years ago, Violet ran. She left behind the betrayal, pain, and man who shattered her heart. Travis Phoenix. Once her safe place. Now a world-famous rockstar drowning in fame, addiction, and regret. For two years she tried to forget him. Tried to rebuild herself far away from the life that nearly destroyed her. But some ghosts refuse to stay buried.
Now she’s coming home after an accident gives her no other choice. She tells herself it’s for closure. Just to make sure he’s okay. To face the past and move on. But the moment she sees Travis again, she realizes something has changed.
He’s darker. More dangerous. And harder to resist than ever. The boy she loved is gone, replaced by a man battling demons he can barely control…”
“…This grumpy, wounded introvert with a bad attitude is definitely not falling miserably in love with his sunshine neighbor.
…I still couldn’t write and I couldn’t tell anyone why. Not my publisher, not my family, not even my editor. It was my dark, cataclysmic secret. Telling the truth could end my career, but saying nothing eroded my trust and ability to put words on the page. My last chance to save my career was this lakeside cottage and a six month deadline.
What I didn’t count on was her. Phoebe Valentine. My sole neighbor who would not be ignored…”
SHE ADOPTED A DOG BUT HE’S ACTUALLY A SHIFTER THAT THINKS THEY ARE MATES!
“…I adopted a therapy dog, and then woke up to him shifting into a naked 6’7 Lycan King in my bed. Now he’s growling the word “mate” like I already belong to him.
I’m a bookish florist with panic attacks and a questionable addiction to spicy werewolf romance novels. The last thing I needed was a cursed Lycan King trapped in wolf form in my house… answering to the name Biscuit.
Beckett Solrath is not a dog. He’s scarred. Feral. An alpha king. And the way he looks at me? Like I’m the only thing keeping him sane.
“…He needs redemption almost as badly as he wants Mercy.
When Liam Benitez is sent to Northport, it isn’t a fresh start—it’s exile. With a past he can’t erase and a future that feels borrowed, he’s determined to prove he’s more than his mistakes. But in a world of privilege and expectations, reinvention is easier said than done. No matter how hard he tries, the shadows of who he was refuse to let him go.
Mercedes Davenport knows what it’s like to be caught between worlds. Taken in by her wealthy aunt, she’s mastered the art of blending in, never asking for too much, and never making waves.
But Liam finds his way past the cracks in her perfect veneer…”
“…I don’t take risks. Not with my heart—and certainly not with my daughter. My life is about hockey and being a dad. Love isn’t part of the plan.
Then I hire Finley to be my daughter’s nanny. She’s supposed to be temporary. Someone to help me get through the chaos of the season. Not someone who matters. Only…she does.
She makes my daughter smile again. Laugh again. Somehow she makes our home feel like a home again.
I know I shouldn’t want her. Know I can’t afford to fall for her—not when she’s going to leave at the end of the season…”
“…I came to steal from the Three Devils. They caught me red-handed. Now I belong to them for one year.
My body. My complete surrender. No escape.
The three most ruthless and dangerously seductive brothers in the mafia underworld have me locked inside their private cliffside fortress — a luxurious glass-and-stone prison perched on the edge of the ocean. Every room has floor-to-ceiling windows. There is nowhere to hide…”
“…One minute we’re swimming in champagne and red satin sheets, the next we’re staring at a due date that lands right when I’m supposed ta start my big sportscasting gig in London.
Amy’s glowing. She’s also got that fire in her — the kind that makes her tell my billionaire uncle exactly where ta shove his branding campaign, quit her job at eight months pregnant, and rearrange our entire life plan on a Tuesday.
The grandmums are suspiciously quiet, which is more terrifying than when they’re at each other’s throats. Then it happens. The wee one decides ta make an entrance four weeks early — while I’m three thousand miles away, live on air, with a producer who willna let me leave.
So I do what any McCormick would do. I coach ma wife through labor in one ear, commentate the match in the other, and let a billion people watch me choose my family over my career on live television.
It’s messy. It’s loud. It’s pure chaos. It’s the match of our lives…”
“…They say marriages don’t fall apart overnight. They’re right. Ours didn’t shatter. It unraveled—quietly… slowly… in ways I didn’t notice until it was too late.
It started with silence. The kind that fills a room even when two people are standing in it. The kind that replaces laughter, soft touches, and everything you thought would last forever.
I thought we were fine. I thought love was enough. Until I saw the message I wasn’t supposed to see…”
“…for three years I didn’t speak a single word. Not after I watched my father slit my sister’s throat for trying to run from her own arranged marriage. The scream died in my throat that night and never came back.
Then he sold me to Kael Voss — the cold-blooded heir of New York’s most ruthless crime family. Kael didn’t want a partner. He wanted a ghost. A silent, obedient wife who would warm his bed when he felt like it and disappear the rest of the time. Perfect. Invisible. Mine to ignore.
“…Three years ago, I started making choices that would wreck everything—cheating, lying, and keeping secrets I had no right to bury. Now I’m in Chicago, hoping distance can erase the damage.
For a few weeks, it worked.
Then, I walked into an apartment and came face to face with someone I never thought I’d see again. Our first meeting was supposed to be a one-time thing in Las Vegas, but now that we’re in the same city again, he’s offering me everything I have ever wanted.
I can’t say yes fast enough.
No labels. No added pressure. Just company and fun.
I try to live in the moment, but as deep feelings start to develop, the decisions of my past start emerging from the dark…”

Things That Break Us by Michelle Heard <— BLURB JOLT ALERT! THE HOLLYWOOD STAR & HIS SISTER’S BEST FRIEND & KATHY IS LOVING IT!
Kathy P: I just started Things that Break Us by Michelle Heard and I couldn’t put it down. And yes, I was teary and that hasn’t happened in a long time. Still have about 60% left.
She normally writes mafia themed books but this is definitely a departure from that.
Really good so far!
Maryse: OH YES that one gave me a blurb jolt. Did you finish it yet? I’m dying to know what you think!! It sounds like quite the tearjerker. I already have a lump in my throat.
So what’s it about?
Some happily ever afters begin in tragedy.
I’m an actor who hates the limelight. Everyone wants Easton Rowe’s attention—my money, my fame. It’s impossible to have a real relationship with a woman, so I don’t even try.
But then there’s Nova. My sister’s best friend. She’s been there our whole lives, and she’s here now to help us when we need her most. When I need her most.
I should keep my guard up, focus on my dying sister and her daughter. But I can’t ignore Nova. Not with the way she carries this grief with me. The way she flinches when I move too fast, the ghost of something lurking in her eyes. The way she blushes when I get too close, making me wonder how close I can get.
For once, I don’t want to keep my distance. Nova thinks she has nothing to give, but all I need is a chance. I know we can take our broken pieces and make something whole.
