Something remarkable is happening in Cape Breton… and across the Maritimes. With Come In, The Kettle’s On, Mary Janet MacDonald is on the cusp of making history.

If sales continue as they have, she will be one of the first female authors from Cape Breton... and the Maritimes... to publish a rare publishing hat trick of National Bestsellers.

Think about that for a moment.
A grandmother who started a Facebook Live cooking show in the early days of the pandemic… now standing shoulder to shoulder with Canada’s bestselling authors. All while sharing the recipes, stories, and hospitality that have defined Maritime kitchens for generations.

We are incredibly proud to be the publisher of Tunes and Wooden Spoons and to cheer Mary Janet on as she reaches this milestone. It’s not just her success. It’s a celebration of Cape Breton spirit, Maritime tradition, and the power of community support.

Here’s where we are today:

✅ More than 5,000 copies of the new book already in readers’ hands

✅ 4,500 more to go to secure that historic “hat trick”

✅ Thousands of families across Nova Scotia, Newfoundland, PEI, and beyond already cooking from her books and sharing her stories around their own tables

This is about legacy. It’s about what it means when a local voice - a mother, grandmother, and neighbour - becomes a national voice.

We’d love for you to be part of it. Every copy matters, and every purchase brings Mary Janet closer to cementing her place in Canadian publishing history.

From all of us at MacIntyre Purcell Publishing, congratulations, Mary Janet. You’ve made us proud. Now let’s help you make history.
