- Have you ever been totally befuddled by the coffee aisle? I needed some good coffee to celebrate Cafe Au Lait day this week, and got stuck. My honey will tell you that I’m the SLOWEST decision-maker on the planet (I prefer “deliberate”) so even my grovery store runs take longer than they should. The coffee aisle is the worst…. too many choices! My little dude, Dubs, took advantage of my distraction to open nearly all of the squeeze pouches in the buggy. *sigh*
- Well, there’s a storm a-brewin’ in the southern food writing world, it seems. Bitter Southerner published an article about the takeover of southern food writing by men (calling them “the new carpetbaggers”) and Southern Foodways Alliance took issue with it. Read both perspectives and tell me what you think.
- I laughed SO hard: Is this a super southern crime or THE MOST southern crime? (hint: it involves alligators and fast food drive-thrus.)
- How badly do I wish I’d been the person doing this interview? Allegedly he came to Jones County for research for the Free State of Jones movie. Think he’ll come back for the premiere?
- They announced the James Beard award nominees this week.. everyone on my feeds seem to be twitterpated about it all. Which nominee are YOU most excited about?
- Oh y’all… I want to be these two super cool gals‘ pal, badly. Their instagram feed tells me that they spend their days around and about Charleston, SC, wearing super chic outfits and taste-testing cocktails. Um, dream job. On top of that, their blog has great cocktail recipes and more!
- This recipe showed up in my bloglovin feed awhile ago and I’m DYING to try it. Pinch of Yum’s Creamy Sweet Potato Thai Curry… they had me at sweet potato and then they said Thai Churry. What???
- I’m heading out in a few minutes for my first SFA Food & Media Symposium. Birmingham, Alabama, here I COME! I’ve been having nightmares about spilling my cocktail on John T. or slipping and falling and letting everyone see my underpants, so wish me luck and grace this weekend.
