Gene Daly sits up at the table with us as we talk about his parents' latest cookbook, The Daly Dish Air Fryer, and the whirlwind that has been the last five years of Gina and Karol's lives. Gene recently started playschool near their home in Co Meath, but he's home today, a bit under the weather, while his teenage siblings, Holly and Ben, are at school.
Cassandra Peterson—better known to the world as Elvira, Mistress of the Dark—sat down with Kyle Meredith to talk about her newest creation, Elvira's Cookbook from Hell. The book, she insists, isn't just another seasonal cash-in, but a legit lifestyle manifesto: goth entertaining 365 days a year. "I'm like the Martha Stewart of the macabre," she laughs, explaining how long she'd fought publishers to get the concept in print.
