I take a second to acknowledge that I’ve been accidentally having more people over to my house and have really been enjoying it. Plus, the power of Amanda Plunkett’s Cream Puff at Babas on Cannon and why we all must eventually detox from that cheeseboard life.
If you love the show, please consider rating and reviewing it!!! ♥️
It’s not what you think. No food predictions here…(I hate those…can we just all agree that those are pointless and boring.) On today’s show I look back on last year and then look forward into 2023 and then I hurt my neck so I decide to just hang out right here..in the world of Effin B Radio..right now. Follow your dreams people, unless you’re like me and only have nightmares about having it out with everyone you’ve ever worked with, in which case I recommend following your day dreams or lucid dreams only. Happy New Year. Thank you for hanging on for nearly 7 years. I can’t wait to see what this year brings.
I remind everyone to TIP THEIR SERVERS this holiday season for the love of god. Plus, I ask a question that’s been kicking around in my brain for a while: What Do People Want From Food Media?????
There’s a bunch of fun holiday markets and shows and other shit happening in Charleston this month! I talk about a few and manage to resurrect my holiday spirit. By the end of the episode I’m even mildly excited about December in spite of myself.
Then, I take way too long to go over all the different snacks I’ll be making on Christmas Eve and caution you against humiliating your guests by making, ridiculous, impossible-to-eat, sloppy, giant, stupid canapés.

“a small French passed hors d’oeuvre. AKA one-biters.” (I made this definition up. but it’s accurate.)
However, if your goal is to humiliate your guests…I provide a few good examples of just how to do that. Whatever you’re into, there’s something for everyone. Bah H—appy Holidays…. 😒
After a tough couple of weeks, I came extremely close to cancelling Thanksgiving altogether…but a well-timed message from a dear friend in F&B brought me back to “the table”. Happy Thanksgiving to all, and here’s to doing exactly what you can and not a bit more.
I remind everyone that CREATIVE MORNINGS TICKETS go live this Monday (10/31) at 10am! I’m reminded of my own Minero Burrito hot tip, and get pumped for Nathan McClements show tonight (10/29) at Hed Hi. Can someone tell me when trick-or-treating is happening? Thanks.
A listener asks me my thoughts on the TikTok Trend “Butter Boards” and I get into party planning mode for Thanksgiving in spite of myself…(yes, planning starts now…)
On this extra short but very sweet episode I share three things I’m making this weekend, talk about an EGG-cellent burrito I made and remind you to hang in there if you feel like your life’s going down the drain. PLUS, I’ll see you at Babas on Cannon for Crepes (tomorrow Saturday 10/15).
I’ve been talking to a lot of people who say dining out doesn’t feel worth it these days. I stumble through my thoughts on why that is and make a case for having a third (or fourth or fifth) party taste your food if you’re selling it for money.
