WHAT ARE WORDS FOR
If the blogging has been a bit intermittent this week, it's because I've again been busy writing words for The Man.
Today, I had a story about the cooks who grill behind the haulers at NASCAR events like tonight's Pepsi 400 race at the Daytona International Speedway. On Wednesday, I had a three-story package on NASCAR and food, including interviews with chef Mario Batali and "Big John" Youk about their respective NASCAR cookbooks, and with former driver and now race team owner Richard Childress about his North Carolina-grown wine.
Those were written in addition to my weekly recipes column, my weekly nutrition column, my Big Question column, and a kids cooking thing I do on Sundays.
Last week, I had a story on choosing the right glass to enhance your enjoyment of wine. (I know, I know. You probably just guzzle from the bottle like I do.) And I did a story about a champagne named POP that is aimed at younger drinkers who were weaned on soft drinks as kids.
Oh, and in addition to postings in The Salad, I also blogged on The Stew and created a new multimedia journalism called MultiTrib.
Other than that, I didn't really do that much.
It's not all wine and roses here either. Lounging around, gauzy white dress, wide-brim hat, lacy gloves, sippin mint julep and playing pinochle with Biddy and Sissy while Mamie cleans the parlor.
