Oversharing

Meet Cortney LaCorte, your new best friend who overshares everything: run-don’t-walk recipes, immediate add-to-cart shopping hauls, her that’s-so-relatable daily grind, and all the hilarious hijinks along the way.

"Equal parts Southern soul, cocktail-hour glamour, and laugh-out-loud kitchen wisdom." ―Clea Shearer, New York Times bestselling author and co-founder of The Home Edit

The Nashville-based food and lifestyle creator, known online as @cheesegal, got her start crafting over-the-top cheeseboards for country music’s elite and going viral for her elevated bite-sized snacks (caviar on a saltine? yes, please!) and airplane cocktails (pro tip: carry on your own Bloody Mary accoutrements). Now, in her debut cookbook, Cort conveys how she makes every meal feel special, whether it’s a Tuesday night home alone or a feast for friends.

Oversharing is filled with comforting recipes that are organized into playful chapters for every meal and moment. Want to unwind with guilt-free reality TV? Settle in for one of Cort’s famous Bougie Couch Snacks, like Chili Crisp Elevated Popcorn. Too tired to cook? Consider Caesar Salad Meatball Smash Burgers and Pantry Puttanesca Pasta your new favorite Weak-Night Dinners. Impress your guests with When to Wow’s Whole Bottle of Cab Pot Roast and Raise the Bar’s Dirty Like the Cumberland Martini, extra dirty and extra shaken, naturally. Then finish it all off with Kar’s Potato Chip and Pecan Cookies, a Dessert You Won’t Desert. Plus, Cort dishes out practical advice, including her ten kitchen commandments (leave your butter on the counter―and make sure it’s salted) and even a culinary dictionary (“cocktail cardio” anyone?).

With easy, flavor-forward recipes and hilarious anecdotes you’ll want to immediately text to your best friend, Oversharing reminds us that the best meals, and the best moments, are meant to be shared.
