People in LA: I’m staying away from carbs and sugar People in Chicago: Portillos chocolate cake is the best because they put mayonnaise in the batter to make it denser.

As you honor my father today, please honor my mother, as well. She was the architect of the King Legacy and founder of @TheKingCenter, which she founded less than three months after Daddy died. Without #CorettaScottKing, there would be no #MLKDay. #MLK  #BelovedCommunity

For influencers and brands who say they don't want to "get political" - the aim of digital creation is to put out content that is timely and relevant. So what you really mean is your desire to stay silent when uncomfortable has led you to actually choose to be bad at your job.

Bacon should come in resealable packaging. Why is this not the case?

It’s been over a year since I quit NYT Cooking. Here to say that it’s ok to leave a big publication! I’ve worked super hard this year and have been able to expand my work a lot. Please enjoy this cheesy recap 🧀:

Some of us could spend hours comparing levels of noodle springiness or extolling the virtues of velveting meat. But sometimes "the best Chinese takeout is simply the one closest to your home." Read @hauchu on DC's best American Chinese food (by ward!): washingtonpost.com/goingoutg…

Food Media's over reliance on very few people (like Marcus) will come back to bite them every time.

I pray often for a kitchen that is basically a restaurant kitchen. I not only want a walk in fridge AND freezer, but an oven big enough for me to put full sheet trays in. I want racks. I want a pot filler. I want every tool and gadget known to mankind and the space for it all.

Reminder, especially if you have a business or work email: Check your spam folder regularly. Every week I set an alarm to do it and every week there's at least one legit opp that has been routed to spam.

It’s not surprising to see “hire a talented black person but under no circumstances should they succeed” at work but it’s ugly and hurts all the same. I am so thankful that Sohla can now talk her shit and get the bag at the same time. An inspiration vulture.com/article/sohla-el…

Loved this episode that features @BunBoBaeBlog! I also hated moon cakes as a kid, but my view has completely changed after trying one of her family's homemade moon cakes. Happy Mid-Autumn Festival! 🥮🍂🌝

I had the great pleasure of chatting about all things mooncakes with @BunBoBaeBlog @omnivorcookbook & @ShengKeeBakery! My personal favorite is the baked mooncake with red bean/sweet bean paste (no eggs!).
“For a lot of Asian Americans, for all of us who are born here, and also came here, the Mooncake Festival means a lot to us. It’s like our Thanksgiving, time to hang out as you would, stress-free with your family and really share that space.” on.today.com/365ExPN
