Oz also is the author of the New York Times bestselling [15] Relish: An Adventure in Food, Style, and Everyday Fun. Relish is part cookbook, part lifestyle guide where Oz shares her approach to curating a life filled with delicious joy and meaningful connection. This book offers essential advice for bringing passion and purpose to everyday food, style, and life (relationships, career, and playtime). The book contains recipes, tips, relationship and career advice, and the author's personal anecdotes. Oz has written articles for Glamour [16] [17] and The Huffington Post .
