A Bit About Me…

Hi! I’m Julianne Altenbern. JuJu. As a poet and line cook, I admire ingredients and have an affinity for drawing connections. Currently, I’m completing my degree in Journalism at the University of Iowa.

What JuJu’s Plate is All About:

By subscribing, a new edition of JuJu’s Plate will be sent to your inbox every Thursday morning. You’ll receive my personal, creative, and poetic writing along with a self-tested and typically-seasonal recipe to chew on.

I am thoughtful, and you will walk away from reading my writing feeling satisfied, intrigued, and reflective. I consider every element, and you will feel it.

If You Subscribe:

You will have access to my recipes, personal writing, and everything in between. Anticipate other bits and pieces sprinkled in, too.

I have ideas and recipes to share and would love if you not only came along for the ride, but supported me. However you choose to do so. Be it a free or paid subscription, sharing my work with others. Anything. Thank you for your time, attention, and interest!
