"A gift to readers and cooks alike ... wise and tender, a reminder that however gloomy your situation, the world abounds in beauty, should you choose to see it.” - The Washington Post "E xuberant, unstoppable, and triumphantly on the side of love and life in the face of death and loss and grief." - Vox This cookbook is about a year in the kitchen (and in the garden under the fire-escape steps). A year of grief and hope and change; of cardamom-cinnamon chicken rice, chimichurri courgettes, quadruple carb soup, blackberry miso birthday cake, and sticky toffee Guinness brownie pudding. A year of loss, and every kind of romance, and fried jam sandwiches. A year of seedlings and pancakes. A year of falling in love. A year of recipes. A year, in other words, of minor miracles. In Ella Risbridger's first book Midnight Chicken, she showed readers how food can serve as a light in our darkest days. Now, in The Year of Miracles, Ella shares her story of recovering from loss with the help of good food and good friends. The book celebrates making a fancy dinner even if you're just eating it with a spoon in front of the tv; having people over to dinner without overthinking it; finding late night snacks to ease you to sleep; and having seconds--of everything. Above all, it a powerful testament to how cooking can help us get up and start again in the face of unimaginable hurt. With tender vulnerability, mesmerizing prose, and delectable recipes, The Year of Miracles is a touching, unforgettable book on finding hope through food. Review: Like a Culinary "Year of Magical Thinking" - As a big fan of Midnight Chicken, I was thrilled to read Risbridger's latest. Part memoir, part cookbook, The Year of Miracles is reminiscent of Joan Didion's Year of Magical Thinking for our pandemic times. I adore her conversational style and invaluable side notes on the recipes. It feels like she's standing alongside you in the kitchen or sharing stories over coffee. Well-written and immersive narrative cookbooks have a special place in my heart, and this is one of the best I've read. The recipes range from simple, quick fare to more complex dishes that require attention, focus, and process. These recipes and Risbridger's writing are culinary self-care and a beautiful reminder of the ways food nurtures our spirit as well as our body, builds connection, and evokes a sense of place and time. Review: Culinary and literary masterpiece - There are two things I'd like people to know: 1) I cook from "Year of Miracles" at least once a week. It's easy food that makes you excited to eat. 2) Someone once told me that the definition of art is something that makes you want to live. "Year of Miracles" makes me want to live. ## Features - Gift Wrapping Offered - Currently Available - All Prices Cover P&P; Overseas Rates & Subscriber Discounts Applied Upon Checkout ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #673,241 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #406 in Breakfast Cooking (Books) #861 in Seasonal Cooking (Books) #6,509 in Special Diet Cooking (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 108 Reviews | ## Images ![The Year of Miracles: Recipes About Love + Grief + Growing Things - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91tk7B2UMZL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Like a Culinary "Year of Magical Thinking" *by A***T on July 28, 2022* As a big fan of Midnight Chicken, I was thrilled to read Risbridger's latest.

It's easy food that makes you excited to eat. 2) Someone once told me that the definition of art is something that makes you want to live. "Year of Miracles" makes me want to live. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Love and Recipes *by J***S on July 31, 2022* This book opens with a very moving poem by Marie Howe. Coincidentally, I have just heard Ms. Howe read some of her poems in a MasterClass. She has so much that is evocative to say as is surely the case in this introduction to The Year of Miracles. This is a heartfelt cookbook that includes 67 recipes set over the course of a year. In January, there are Cardamom Buns for example, while February has a Pistachio Pie. March calls for Storm at Sea Scones and Crisis Cardamom Coffee. So it goes over the course of this year landing finally on Fried Jam Sandwiches and then Insanity Noodles in December. Following is a kind of PS Spring chapter with Love & Dumplings. This is a cookbook that intersperses its recipes with a memoir about the author’s grief. Her life was changed when someone she loved became ill. There were the occasional miracles but also a sad inevitability. Through this experience came the writer’s conclusion that you have to make your own miracles. She shares some of how and what she did with these wonderful recipes. Read this one in the way that works for you. It could be for the memoir or the illustrations or the recipes filled with practicality (although they did not all look so easy to me). I loved how the book’s readers/cooks were invited in. Many thanks to NetGalley and Bloomsbury USA for this title. All opinions are my own. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/391275135-the-year-of-miracles-recipes-about-love-grief-growing-things](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/391275135-the-year-of-miracles-recipes-about-love-grief-growing-things) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-09-14*
