FRISCO \u2014 Local author Jennie Iverson worked in engineering before releasing her well-loved cookbook series with Ski Town Life.<\/p>\n

\u201cSki Town Brunch,\u201d<\/a> the latest in the series that also includes \u201cSki Town Soups\u201d and \u201cSki Town Apres,\u201d hit shelves earlier this fall<\/a>. On Friday, Nov. 22, Iverson will bring treats and join other local authors at Next Page Books and Nosh\u2019s Winter Walk event for a book signing.<\/p>\n

Julie \u2018JVL\u2019 Bell will be signing her two newest releases on women in Colorado history, \u201cDenver City Justice\u201d and \u201cElizabeth Byers.\u201d Keystone Resort founder Bill Bergman will sign copies of his book \u201cBy Chance.\u201d <\/em>All proceeds from Bergman\u2019s book will be donated to Keystone Science School.<\/p>\n

Additionally, baking columnist Vera Dawson will be there with her book \u201cCookies for People in High Places\u201d along with snacks to sample while Annie Kerr of Wild Balance<\/a> will have custom jewelry for sale.<\/p>\n

All of Iverson\u2019s cookbooks, which look and feel like coffee table books while still staying functional, have gathered recipes from world-renowned chefs at ski resorts in the United States and Canada, including several from local favorites. In \u201cSki Town Brunch,\u201d chefs can try their hand at making Gessner\u2019s egg white frittata, Green Elephant Juicery\u2019s Purple Yeti Smoothie or Leonora\u2019s short rib hash.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe went on a camping trip with a couple of other Vail couples last summer,\u201d she said. \u201cThe short rib hash has all of these root vegetables and kale, all chopped up. I made it before we went, and I just heated it up on our Coleman stove and added some spices and fresh scrambled eggs to it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Iverson, at heart, is a home cook. She\u2019s always loved food, and being able to test her recipes out on her husband and three sons was helpful in writing the cookbook.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m so happy with the way it turned out,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

She also loves to travel. Part of the genesis of her Ski Town Life brand was merging food and lifestyle with travel and mountain life. Earlier this year, she went on a girls\u2019 trip to Napa Valley in California. She and some friends rented a place with a kitchen, and she made brunch for everyone.<\/p>\n

\u201cPeople were asking me, \u2018How was your trip? What did you do?\u2019 and it all reflects back to food,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

But she readily admits that not everything was an easy, smash hit on the first try. In the book, recipes are rated the same way ski runs are: green circles for easy, black diamonds for most challenging. The most challenging thing she\u2019s ever made was a duck consomm\u00e9 for \u201cSki Town Soups.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI make this for a home cook like me. I\u2019m just puttering in the kitchen, so what appeals to me would probably appeal to other people,\u201d she said. \u201cI got extremely good at poaching eggs.\u201d<\/p>\n

While the cookbooks have been incredibly successful, especially among locals, Iverson is looking forward to tackling new projects with her Ski Town Life business partner, Jen Baker. The two have been friends for eight years and met here when they were both newbies to the Vail Valley, and they\u2019re excited to explore new possibilities with the same basic idea.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think it would be really fun to do some sort of European addition. Or maybe some specific foods that are specific to different regions of Europe. Breaking out the cocktail portion would be really fun,\u201d Iverson said. \u201cWe\u2019re not exactly sure what direction to go in. But it\u2019s exciting.\u201d<\/p>\n
