I hate to comment again. I have an insatiable craving for that galette now. This card site has great easy to find resources. https://georgiarunoffinfo.carrd.co/#learn
This isn't about Thanksgiving cuisine (although I do indeed give thanks for reasons noted below). Because I can't find another way to contact you, I subscribed to your newsletter today (also gave my mom a subscription, you'll see below). I just think you should hear about the good, besides delish cuisine, flowing from your creativity and books and self--this is how stuff happens in real life, and you won't ever hear about it unless, apparently, I post a comment in a newsletter. So last March, my friend Kim and her two daughters were suddenly stuck at home, and they decided to cook through both of your books, which they did. Every single recipe. They texted gorgeous photos of everything, and because I like to cook when I have time (isolation works for that), I asked what the heck they were doing. Kim ORDERED me (she's pretty bossy, that Kim!) to buy your two cookbooks. So I did, and then I started cooking. Fast forward to October, when my mom, who is 89 and a fabulous cook forever, was coming to visit. She's absolutely conservative COVID-ly, still hasn't been in a grocery store since February, and I could tell that she was, well, feeling low (she's never had depression before, I can attest). I told her about the cookbooks, knowing she's intrigued about all things cooking, but she rather dismissed the whole notion--and then I KNEW she was actually depressed. She arrived, and I made only NF recipes that night, and she took note--but was still pretty much uninterested. The next day, I made DI and NF recipes for dinner--and she started perking up. This went on for five days (I felt like Schehezerade), and by the time she left, she was so enamored that, what else could I do, I had to give her my two cookbooks. She was excited--and motivated, and chipper. She's been cooking ever since, and she told her friends in her small town, who have also purchased cookbooks, despite not being able to buy black sesame seeds, nutritional yeast or ground sumac in the local grocery store. Today my mom said that one of her friends was so enamored that she bought another two books, and then another four, and then decided to give them for Christmas presents--until Amazon cut her off! You have to tell Amazon they can't do that. I've told two more friends (also looking for a COVID boost), both of whom have ordered, and I Kim and I each need a second set . . . . Needless to say, hot takes on turkey or not, I'm giving thanks for you and your creativity (and let's not forget Kim), all of which has so positively impacted my mom, my family and friends. And me. PS--Best $100 I've spent all month just to tell you.
Inspired by your activism I'm phone banking for Ossoff currently. https://www.mobilize.us/electjon/
