and, a new announcement! But the first update is… You guys!

This is it! This is the Nerdy Nummies Cookbook! It is hot off the press,

an advance copy that the publishers just mailed to me. And I am so excited,

this is what it’s gonna look like in stores and online on November 3rd.

Later in the video I’ll flip through some pages and show you what’s inside!

Oooooh! I’m so excited!

And I know what some of you are thinking, you’re like Ro, but you showed

us a book cover in your last update, wasn’t that the final book?

And the answer is, it was this book, which is what they call a dummy book

in publishing. It’s where the inside of the book is completely, check this out!

Completely empty!

But it’s just so when you’re making a book you can test out the design of the

cover and weight and feel of the book.

So I’m gonna set this off to the side and give you a little sneak peak in

just a minute, but before we get to that I wanted to update you about

the book tour! I’m so excited! We just finalized all the stops and the information,

the whole schedule is on NerdyNummiesCookbook.com.

Go check it out there and see if we are gonna be stopping anywhere near you.

We are gonna be going to over 30 locations, all throughout the country,

I hope you guys can come and hang out!

Now for my all new announcement, I’m gonna be on TV!

I just filmed an hour long Halloween special with The Cooking Channel,

so you can tune in Sunday October 25th, at 5PM, that’s for pacific time.

If you’re on the east coast, 8 PM. You guys know, I love Halloween, it’s gonna

be so much fun. I’m gonna be baking with my dad, my sister Mo, and a bunch of my

friends are there. Like Jake! From VSauce3! He’s gonna be helping me bake,

I am so excited, I’ve never done a TV special before, so I hope you guys

love it and tune in! I’ll be posting information down below and on

all my social medias if you want to check it out!

Hope you can tune into the cooking channel on Sunday October 25th, we’re gonna

be having an early halloween party and I just realized this as we’re talking,

it airs right before The Walking Dead.

So you can come learn how to make some creepy treats with me, and then

snack on them while you’re watching Walking Dead!

I think that’s what I’ll be doing!

Last update, I told you guys a little bit ago that I was gonna be in the music

video ‘Dessert’ by my very talented friend Dawin, and I just found out that it’s

coming out this Monday, October 19th! I’ll be posting it on all my social

media, keep you guys in the loop. It was just such a fun music video.

And the video’s theme is dessert, so you know that I’m gonna love on it!

Down below I’ll put a link to Dawin’s Channel, so as soon as the song comes

out you guys will be the first to know. Don’t forget to leave a comment in the

comment of the music video so that I know you guys saw it.

I’m so excited about this because I’ve never been in a music video quite like

this before and it was just so much fun!

And now! Without further ado!

I’m gonna give you a sneak peak of the Nerdy Nummies Cookbook.

I wanted to share some of the special little tidbits and stories about the book.

For example, this cover photo was taken in my actual kitchen where we film

Nerdy Nummies, it was not green screened or on a set.

I really wanted Nerdy Nummies Cookbook to embody the show, so, everything was done

right here in my house.

This is my rolling pin, this is my real rolling pin that I use, this is my

cookie cutter that, that’s mine, that’s not a prop.

Even this little shirt my sister got me this shirt. And my mom, fun fact,

my mom made this apron, she sewed this from scratch.

All of the food photos were shot in my house. And we baked them in the kitchen.

We were our own food testers, and our own food stylists.

I have really funny behind the scenes photos of us in the living room, setting

up each shot in the book, it’s so funny!

We got Schmidt, we got Mr. Husky, and me trying to food style, uh,

this was my first time food styling, so it was very interesting but it was

a lot of fun, so many good memories. Now let’s open it up, waaaaaaaaahhhh!

Oh I’m so excited! Look at these! I really wanted pattern little icons representing

the different themed chapters, and that is exactly what I’m looking at.

I love it! Oh! You guys, this is the title page!

Ah!

And on the first page right when I open this up, right here is my dedication.

I dedicated it to all of my viewers because without you guys, none of this

would have been possible! You guys made this happen, it’s so special!

So I put it right there, front and center! Bakers gonna bake!

The book is divided into different themed chapters, all things that were

considered geeky when I was growing up. We have Math and Science, Space,

Fantasy and Sci-Fi, Gaming, Tech and Web, and, basically, miscellaneous

Geeky Treats, like The Smart Cookie, he’s in there.

Oh you guys! And then, in the introduction there is an about Nerdy Nummies page,

and right here, this is the Nerdy Nummies team, there’s me, Molly, my Mom,

Matt our editor, Schmidt our DP, Greg, Geoff, Mr. Husky, my Dad, oh look,

and there’s Cookie and Henny!

And some of my favorite moments from the show, this was so cute.

This was when my dad came to bake with me. Neil DeGrasse Tyson, my favorite

astrophysicist in the entire world!

Oooh! You guys, I don’t think I mentioned this before, but the Nerdy Nummies

Cookbook is a smart book! And what this means is there are barcodes

throughout the book whenever I’m using a cookie cutter or a template,

I’ve pre-made the template for you guys so that if you don’t have that

specific shape, you just scan it with your phone, dewp!

And then you can print out the templates for free.

In the beginning of the book there are a bunch of basic, Nerdy Nummies original

recipes, and then throughout the book we incorporate those, and we teach

you how to decorate.

You guys guys ready for the first chapter? Oh my gosh you guys, look at that!

Chapter one, Math & Science! This outfit was actually inspired by Bill Nye!

And then here are each of the recipes and their page numbers so you can go

exactly to which recipe you want, or you can flip through.

Oooh! The very first recipe in the book is Apple Pi Pie!

I’m kind of a math geek, and then for each of the recipes they have a little

blurb in the beginning, and then the things you’ll need, a Ro tip, the instructions,

and the decoration instructions, they’re all divided.

And for each recipe, like I said before, there is a 6 picture step-by-step

photo guide, so that you can actually see the dessert coming together.

I don’t know about you guys but I am a very visual learner, and I really

wanted it to feel like Nerdy Nummies the show, and it’s so visual on the show, so.

I wanted to make sure you could see the process of how you got a really cool

final product. And you guys know this one! Chemistry Lab Cake!

Even classic recipes that we’ve done before on Nerdy Nummies, I revamped them!

Because, you live and you learn, you learn new tricks and tips that make

things easier, so that’s what I did here.

So those are some classic recipes from the show, I put some of my favorite in the book.

But 2/3rds of these in this book are brand new, never been done before

Nerdy Nummies recipes! Like this one, little Atoms Cookies.

I’m gonna read you the little blurb, because some of the blurbs have some info

in them that I’ve never shared with anyone before,

so I thought it was pretty special.

Atoms are the building blocks of every type of matter in the universe, even you!

My grandfather was a nuclear physicist, and my uncle followed in his footsteps.

And my dad’s old high school even had an atom in it’s emblem.

I guess you could say we have an atomic bond!

I decorated my atom cookies green, blue, and purple, but you can make your

atom cookies any color you’d like. Just remember, never trust an Atom!

They make up everything!

Wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah!

So it’s kinda corny, just like me.

Skipping ahead, this is one of my favorites, it’s from the space chapter.

It is Star Constellation Cookies! They are these yummy homemade

Lemon Sugar Cookies, and we cut them to look like little stars.

And you can arrange them to look like any star constellation

that you’d like!

And I added an extra graphic of some different star constellations, so if you

didn’t want to look one up on your phone, it’s right there as you’re working

through the book!

Ooooh! Another one that I really love is from the Tech and Web chapter.

And that is called the Motherboard Cake!

We make a cake and we decorate it with different candies to look like

a motherboard. And to be helpful, I added this graphic, some motherboard

cake basics, and it labels all of the different parts of a motherboard.

So, not only is it yummy, but, educational!

I thought that that would be pretty neat!

Oh you guys! And in the Geeky Treats, we’ve got, the Smart Cookie!

He has been re-mastered and I developed the most delicious chocolate chip cookie

recipe that I’ve ever eaten, it is so good!

This Smart Cookie is new and improved!

He’s more like a genius cookie now!

Alright, I don’t have time to show you guys the whole book, but I hope you

enjoyed the sneak peak, and if you’d like to order a copy of the Nerdy Nummies

Cookbook, you can go to NerdyNummiesCookbook.com and order there!

Alright, that’s it for all of my updates, I am so excited to go on

tour and I hope to see you guys at one of the stops.

Or at a couple of the stops, you can come to a couple and hang out if you

wanted. Also, let me know if you would like to see a Bus Tour Video,

I’ve never gone on tour and I don’t know how to make one, but,

maybe that’d be cool, I don’t, I don’t know!

OK, thanks again you guys! Bye-bye!
