My Week in Food
I haven’t cook. I haven’t bought groceries. I have either eaten out or eaten leftovers from my job. Must do better.
Reading is Food-a-mental
Welcome, new subscribers! I have curated a great list of cookbooks and books about food on Bookshop. Check out the list below. If you buy a book via the link, you will be both supporting local bookstores and I get some affiliate income.
Rainbow-Washed Burger
June is the month where advertising fails are plenty. Corporations try to celebrate Juneteenth and Pride but they often do not know how. This Burger King ad from Austria looks like something from The Onion.
Mambo Italiano
You need to know the difference between Aperol and Campari especially if you are drinking Negroni and Aperol Spritzes this summer.
High On The Hog
Congratulations to Dr. Jessica B. Harris, Steve Satterfield and the production team of High On The Hog. The Netflix series has won a Peabody Award! Plus, there will be a season two.
For The High Rollers
Kwame Onwuachi is hosting the second annual Family Reunion at Salamander Hotel and Resort this August in Middleburg, Virginia. Celebrated Black chefs and food writers from all over will be there.
Rainbow Cookies from The Amateur Gourmet
I met Adam Roberts, AKA The Amateur Gourmet, about 15 years ago at a blogger event in New York. He’s on Substack as well and he has a fun Pride recipe for rainbow cookies.
From One Year Ago…

Have a delicious week,
