April Peveteaux is a writer, edi­tor and the unlucky recip­i­ent of a celi­ac dis­ease diag­no­sis. An enthu­si­as­tic home cook (espe­cial­ly dur­ing hol­i­days), Peveteaux con­vert­ed fam­i­ly recipes to gluten-free and found peo­ple could­n’t tell the dif­fer­ence between gluten-free latkes, and the flour-coat­ed ver­sions of Hanukkahs past. She lives in Hol­ly­wood with her hus­band and two chil­dren, and miss­es New York intensely.
