Food Sites for May 2018
Thursday, April 19, 2018
Crab tracks on a St. Augustine sand dune.
Spring is a time of rampant expectations, tantalizingly close, yet not quite there... until they gloriously explode into full bloom everywhere. The season for crabs, and morels, and ramps is almost here... and we’re more than ready for them. It’s been an absurdly long winter, and we’re not going to mourn one slushy minute of it.
Anxiously waiting for edits to our new book—Après Escoffier: Sauces Reconsidered—to arrive, and we’re eager to get on with transforming it from a not-entirely-rough draft to something someone might want to read.
You can, if you wish, follow us on Facebook, and Twitter. Still more of our online scribbles can be found at A Quiet Little Table in the Corner.
A scribbler’s quote (from On the Table’s culinary quote collection) this month:
God have mercy on the sinner
Who must write with no dinner,
No gravy and no grub,
No pewter and no pub,
No belly and no bowels,
Only consonants and vowels. John Crowe Ransom

PS: If you encounter broken links, changed URLs—or know of wonderful sites we’ve missed—please drop us a line. It helps to keep this resource as useful as possible for all of us. To those who have pointed out tasty sites (this month we’re tipping our hat to Cara De Silva), thanks, and keep them coming!
PPS: If you wish to change the e-mail address at which you receive these newsletters, or otherwise modify the way you receive our postings or—if you’ve received this newsletter by mistake, and/or don’t wish to receive future issues—you have our sincere apology and can have your e-mail address deleted from the list immediately. We‘re happy (and continuously amazed) that so few people have decided to leave the list but, should you choose to be one of them, let us know and we’ll see that your in-box is never afflicted by these updates again. You’ll find links at the bottom of this page to fix everything to your liking.

Except, of course, for the usual legalistic mumbo-jumbo and commercial flim-flam:
Occasionally, URLs we provide may link to commercial sites (that is, they’ll cost you money to take full advantage of them). We do not receive any compensation for listing them here, and provide them without any form of recommendation—other than the fact that they looked interesting to us.
Your privacy is important to us. We will not give, sell or share your e-mail address with anyone, for any purpose—ever. Nonetheless, we will expose you to the following irredeemably brazen plugs:

Vehicle title advances are not for everybody. They work for those shoppers who are in the situation to pay back what they obtained when expected yet for the individuals who can't? It's best to avoid acquiring against your auto and discover another approach to get the assets you require.
Nicest information!!! I'll be enchanted to greatly help due to what I've learnt from here.
