]]> If you love books and baking in equal measure, Stephanie Hockersmith’s pies will become your next obsession. The Colorado-based baker found viral fame on Instagram after she decided to pay homage to her favorite book covers by baking pies inspired by them.

Hockersmith fell in love with baking over a decade ago, and her approach changed when she decided to go gluten-free. This switch made her look at pie-making in a whole new light, and she eventually decided to put a vibrant twist on her pies by adding some food coloring to the mix.

Baking wasn’t Hockersmith’s only hobby, and she enjoyed books just as much. She even ran an Instagram account where she could talk about the books that she was reading, and her life upside down when she decided to mix these two passions into one.

Hockersmith found viral fame under the moniker Pie Lady Books, and she’s best known for baking pies inspired by favorite book covers. Her pies can take up to three hours to make, depending on the colors and details involved.

When it comes to the selection process, Hockersmith lets the covers speak to her. She’s drawn to some of them so much that she can’t resist making pies before even reading the books, and the final result is always truly sweet!

With over 550,000 followers and counting, Yee is one of the leading vegan bloggers on this social media platform and her recipes are a gift that keeps on giving. She also posts some of them on her food blog and YouTube channel, but most of them are easy enough to follow even if you focus on the instructions from Instagram captions alone.

Yee’s main goal is to encourage more people to adapt to a plant-based lifestyle through her vegan recipes. That’s why she keeps them simple and easy, but that’s not stopping them from looking so good that you’d feel bad about eating them.

Her desserts simply wouldn’t be the same if it wasn’t for their vibrant shades and they come in all the colors of the rainbow. They often owe their vivid shades to plant-based organic powders by Suncore Foods, such as matcha, blue spirulina, and butterfly pea powders.

]]> Netflix ushered a new era for teen rom-com with To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before two years ago, and its sequel is finally here. P.S. I Still Love You immediately became a huge hit, but it also divided the fans of the franchise because Lara Jean had two love interests to choose from this time around.

Fans of the first movie really wanted her relationship with Peter Kavinsky to work out, but some of them changed their mind when the second movie introduced a new character – John Ambrose, her childhood friend and a recipient of one of her infamous love letters.

To All the Boys fans immediately started a huge debate online about who’s more worthy of Lara Jean’s love, and Team Peter and Team John Ambrose formed and started laying out their arguments why one is better than the other.

It’s Team Edward vs. Team Jacob all over again, and no Buzzfeed personality quiz can solve this new viral dilemma. Even Lana Condor, who plays Lara Jean, admitted the whole thing keeps her up at night, but she’s Team Peter because she believes he and Lara Jean truly challenge each other.

To All the Boys: P.S. I Still Love You started streaming on Netflix on February 12th, so you can watch it right away and decided which team you’re on.

]]> Netflix ushered a new era for teen rom-com with To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before two years ago, and its sequel is finally here. P.S. I Still Love You immediately became a huge hit, but it also divided the fans of the franchise because Lara Jean had two love interests to choose from this time around.

Fans of the first movie really wanted her relationship with Peter Kavinsky to work out, but some of them changed their mind when the second movie introduced a new character – John Ambrose, her childhood friend and a recipient of one of her infamous love letters.

It’s Team Edward vs. Team Jacob all over again, and no Buzzfeed personality quiz can solve this new viral dilemma. Even Lana Condor, who plays Lara Jean, admitted the whole thing keeps her up at night, but she’s Team Peter because she believes he and Lara Jean truly challenge each other.

To All the Boys: P.S. I Still Love You started streaming on Netflix on February 12th, so you can watch it right away and decided which team you’re on.
