Published!

My article on New Orleans as a chocolate city was published this past Saturday in the Mobile Press Register, my city's newspaper. It won a special designation as a Blue Ribbon letter. I am very excited, especially since I get a lapel pin.

I saw the article in the paper and I was excited for you! Wear that lapel pin proudly (and don't prick yourself)!

Don't forget the little people on your rise to stardom. Don't lie about anything when you're on Oprah.
