Ree Drummond Instagram – When I wrote my first cookbook in 2009, my best friend Hyacinth and I cooked all the food together and I took photos along the way. For my new cookbook, I jumped in with both feet, both hands, my lab Lucy, and THE most incredible group of people I could possibly hope to work with. Hope you enjoy this glimpse into the crazy prepping, chopping, slicing, diving, shooting, tasting, testing, and collaborating that went into “Dinner’s Ready.” Physically I’m kind of a mess throughout this whole video 😂 (not much makeup, messy hair, food all over my clothes) and that’s exactly what shooting a cookbook is like! SO much appreciation for Trey Wilson, Jess Palace, Savannah Givens, Kate Atkinson, Allison Jordan, Seth Jordan, Ed Anderson, and MATT TAYLOR, who filmed all these candid moments without any of us really noticing…and who put this behind-the-scenes video together. Thank you, team!! I’m going to take a nap now. 😊
