I’ve had quite a time keeping this secret under wraps, but a few weeks ago I found out that Southern Plate had been chosen as one of the participants in the Foodbuzz 24,24,24 event! Foodbuzz is going to feature 24 meals, in 24 hours, on 24 different blogs around the world!
I wrote up a formal proposal complete with menu, writing samples, and type of coverage I would provide along with why my voice would be a unique one to include in this event and you could have knocked me over with a feather when my proposal was accepted! If you’d like to learn a little more about me and my history with Southern food, settle in and sit a spell or just click here!
Lets get us some good food cookin’! In the South, we love breakfast. We love it any time of the day, too! Many restaurants feature breakfast bars at dinner or even full breakfast menus throughout the day. When a large family gathers together, what could be more pleasing than our favorite traditional breakfast dishes served up with a glass of iced tea?
We gathered at my parent’s house on the banks of the Tennessee River. With my two grandmothers, adopted Aunt and Uncle, siblings, children, and nephews, there were a total of nine people sitting at my mother’s expansive dinner table, with overflow in the sunroom.
