Her three-week experiment became a lifestyle, the website CookforGood.com, the book Wildly Affordable Organic, and the Wildly Good Cook videos. Her story took a romantic turn recently when she wrote the comic romance Fifty Weeks of Green: Romance & Recipes. She teaches cooking classes and give talks on thrift, sustainability, and living your dream life across the country.Linda lives with her husband Bruce in Raleigh, North Carolina. She has a certificate in Plant-Based Nutrition from the T.
