Food Sites for December 2014
Friday, November 14, 2014
A wintry feast of apples for wildlife—in one of the many orchards near New Paltz, New York.
Regular subscribers to our updates newsletter receive these updates from our blog, Just Served, directly—but there is much more at the blog that isn’t delivered automatically. In honor of the dinner party season, last month it served up “Too Hungry for Dinner at Hate.” November also saw Dr Sanscravat’s annual Thanksgiving ravings. This time, however, hiding behind the alias “I Am Curious: Orange,” it showed up in Roll Magazine.
As usual, we assume that too much is never enough, so this month’s issue is piling on additional comments appropriate to the gorging season (from On the Table’s culinary quote collection):
Strange to see how a good dinner and feasting reconciles everybody. Samuel Pepys
FEAST, n. A festival. A religious celebration usually signalized by gluttony and drunkenness, frequently in honor of some holy person distinguished for abstemiousness. Ambrose Bierce
Contemporary societies have lost the sense of the feast but have kept the obscure drive for it. Umberto Eco
Gary
