SNACKS & STENO

The book!

Snacks & Steno is two books in one.

The first is a cookbook — easy, cozy, affordable recipes with real photography, the kind of food Thomas has been making and sharing with friends for years.

The second is a steno textbook built around that same food — English and steno briefs side by side, word lists, stroke tips, and practice material designed to be used for years, not just through theory class.

Together, they celebrate stenography as something more than utilitarian — and prove that a textbook can also be something you actually want to have in your kitchen.

A Note on Inclusivity

Thomas’ food choices are primarily plant-based, but the people around him aren’t all the same. The recipes include swaps throughout, so the book works for a wide range of readers — and a wide range of tables.

A Sample from the Book
