    Eva Kosmas Flores of Adventures in Cooking

    Hello There!

    Welcome! I’m Eva – cookbook author, photographer, homesteader, plant nerd, and educator extraordinaire! I’m so happy to have you here in my home on the web.

    Likes: the smell of tomato leaves, gardening, my beagle’s muzzle, science, sticking cold hands under a warm faucet, the first produce of the season, Sansa Stark, and true crime podcasts.

    Dislikes: ghosting, ants, the smell of broccoli cooking, carpeted airports, wastefulness, when you walk on a surface that makes your shoes sound SUPER squeaky, #notallmen, and sesame seeds.
