Spoons�is not your average cookbook -�it�s a vibrant, neurodivergent-friendly companion designed to honor fluctuating energy levels, celebrate sensory preferences, and support autonomy in the kitchen. � Rooted in Spoon Theory and shaped by the lived experiences of autistic adults, this cookbook is organized by 'spoons'�(a metaphor for available energy) and sensory textures (chewy, crunchy, soft, hot, cold). Whether it�s a one-spoon kind of day, when even toast feels like a triumph, or a five-spoon window of curiosity and capacity, Spoons�offers gentle, low-pressure guidance every step of the way. � Created by Phoebe Jordan, an autistic adult, researcher, and passionate food lover, this book is filled with practical adaptations and joyful storytelling. With whimsical touches, flexible recipes, and thoughtful structure, it invites readers to explore food in a way that feels safe, empowering, and fun. � Perfect for neurodivergent people of all ages and anyone who�s ever stared into the fridge wondering what they could manage today, Spoons�is more than a collection of recipes. It�s a soft place to land, a reminder that nourishment can be simple, soothing, and worth celebrating, whatever kind of day you�re having.
