New War Between the States? in Smell The Coffee

Published: Wed, 11/17/21

Hello ,

Yay! Copies of m memoir cookbook arrived! Did you get your copy yet?

If you think you have food "allergy" issues, this is the book for you. People tell me that my story is an inspiration to them. They are thrilled to reduce or eliminate inflammation and other issues when they figure out which foods cause the problems, like I did. They let me know that my story points them to solutions. And they love my recipes!

Podcast

Did you sign up on Apple podcasts for "Virginia Is For Laughers with X2 Comedy" with our local comedienne, Dawn Davis Womack? Go do it now so you can hear Don and me give you tips on holiday gatherings and recipe ideas you will love, all with a good bit of laughter. I still don't know it we will be on the show December 1 or 8, but if you sign up now, you'll be sure to hear us.

Winter Wordfest Book Fair

The holiday book fair with local authors, Winter Wordfest sponsored by the Shenandoah Valley Writers group has almost a dozen authors participating! Mark your calendar now for Saturday, December 11, 1:00-7:30 PM. We will be in downtown Harrisonburg, 41 Court Square, in the atrium between Capital Ale House and Court Square Theater.

The authors will answer your questions FOR FREE about being an author, how they got started, what they do to keep motivated, and lots more. They will be happy to sign their books for you when you buy them, too! We have people who write romance novels, time travel/regency romance novels, children's books, business books, and, of course, a brilliant home chef and healthy advocate presenting her cookbook and food journal. ;-)

Winter Wordfest is the same day as Winterfest, so bring the kids and enjoy a fun time in Harrisonburg.

Recipe Reprise

I'm still focusing on holiday meals this week. You'll find updated posts for Northern Green Bean Casserole and Southern Green Bean Casserole. Scroll down for the photos, which link to the recipes.

It could be a war between the states, but Quakers don't fight. ;-) My family is split on which one they like the best, so we make one for Thanksgiving and the other for Christmas. What's your favorite?

Until next week...

Be happy,

Lois
