In this deliciously heartfelt episode of The Author Corner, host Stephanie Larkin welcomes Maria Caporaso Magdalen, author of Eat and Shut Up. More than just a cookbook, Maria’s work is a celebration of family, faith, and tradition—recipes passed down through generations and lovingly preserved for new ones.

Maria shares the stories behind the dishes that graced her family’s table at holiday gatherings and everyday meals alike. From nostalgic flavors rooted in her heritage to personal touches that make each recipe uniquely hers, Eat and Shut Up is both a culinary treasure and a memoir of family love. Join us as we explore how food connects us to our past, nourishes our present, and builds memories for the future.
