I’ve been busy this week and it’s all thanks to you! Taste of the South asked what food blogger you’d most like to see in their magazine and because of your response, they contacted me to write a feature in the August/September issue. I was so thrilled to join them on a photo shoot this past Tuesday in Birmingham. We had a great time hanging out and nibbling some of my recipes that will be featured in that issue.

The crew from left to right: Will Dickey (photographer), Malinda Nichols (photo stylist), Brooke Bell (editor), Me, Virginia Hornbuckle (Test Kitchen), and Jyl Nipper (friend I couldn’t live without).

This is the stylist arranging the dish towel just so beneath my hand.

You’d be amazed at the attention to detail that goes into these magazine photos but the finished result is just gorgeous. I can’t wait for you to see it!

This is me posing – with a pesky lock of hair in my eyes.

And this little angel is Alex.

We used his little hand in some of the photos for the kid friendly recipes as he reached in to grab a bite!

As soon as I left that shoot I headed over to Southern Living to begin a few days of filming as I host a new series they are rolling out. I posted lots of behind the scenes photos on the Front Porch so head on over there if you’d like to see. Stay tuned for a great sneak peak next week and be sure and pick up the June issue of Southern Living for more information!

Thank you for all that you have given me and for being one of the many reasons my heart smiles each day.

Gratefully,

Christy
