Thrilled to be included in this @FoodNetwork_Mag article written by the amazing @EmilySaladino - chicken and dumplings (or chicken and pastry as my nana called it) are close to my heart, and I loved talking about the enduring nature of this dish. foodnetwork.com/how-to/packa…

Such a great night @ChryslerMuseum thrilled to have been invited to speak as a part of their Southern Aesthetics series. I grew up in Norfolk so this is a full circle moment for me. I never dreamed I would be on stage talking about the legacy of Black foodways. Incredible.

Winning this award could not have happened without @marvinyueh and the incredible team that worked on the show. Thank you to everyone who took time to listen-Black food deserves to be held in the same esteem as any other cuisine-I hope this show helped to make that a reality.

Thrilled about this announcement-humbled to be the first Black editor to lead food coverage at a major Richmond outlet. Virginia has much to add to the culinary conversation, and to paraphrase the illustrious Andre 3000, “we got something to say.” vpm.org/2023-10-02/debra-fre…

I am over the moon-just found out Setting the Table is an @IACPculinary (The International Association of Culinary Professionals) finalist! I am in such incredible company and thrilled. Really, no words.
