Great Grapes!
One of the following statements is true:
A) I detest bacon.
B) I am fearless in the face of yeast.
C) I cook food and I eat food so now we’ll find out if I can also talk about food.
I hope you all know me well enough by now to have picked C because I will be participating in a Food Blogger panel at Great Grapes.
Great Grapes is a two day extravaganza of wine, food, arts, music, and fun. Local food bloggers Minx Eats, Mango and Ginger, and The Baltimore Snacker will be doing the hard work when they participate in the live cooking demonstrations (1PM Saturday). I will be part of the food discussion (3PM Sunday) along with What’s To Eat Baltimore‘s Liz Stambaugh, The Upstart Kitchen‘s Wendy Tien, and Jessica Lemmo of Adventures in Baltimore Restaurants. Dara Bunjon of Dining Dish will moderate our mayhem.
Two Wendi’s. One stage. What are the chances of that?
