Southern Foodways Alliance

Otis Clay and his band rocked the house after LITERALLY driving all night. THAT, ladies and gentlemen, is professionalism.

Just back from the Southern Foodways Alliance‘s annual symposium, and it was, as always a rip-snortin’ good time and one of the better annual reunions on record. There was plenty of conversing and carousing during the weekend in Oxford, with plenty of memorable performances ranging from Otis Clay on Saturday morning to an amazing pork-inspired dance piece executed by Ballet Memphis.  The membership, of course, is the biggest draw — a chance to see friends and chosen family during three days of yakking, drinking and feasting.
