The fabric of society.

Top Five meals of all time* in no particular order

5. Sushi with Mark at Masa right before moving to Tallahassee from New York. First time I ever had uni. First time I spent a rent check on a dinner.

4. Cooking for my birthday wine dinner at cypress. Oysters rarebit, greeting a table for the first time in whites, pumpkin bread pudding, kissing my boyfriend on the cheek before heading back into the fire, seeing my friends happy with their food.

3. Smoked salmon sandwiches and a bottle of Cabernet table wine in London. We watched the lunar eclipse, the next morning I woke up and went for the greatest run of my entire life.

2. The night George and I made fried chicken in my apartment. It was my introduction to southern hospitality and Hawaiian rolls. He taught me the finer points of the cast iron skillet and helped me get over my fear of water at Wakulla Springs.

1. The night Hunter Savage cooked for us all at the boys house. I can't remember what he made but it involved pork and large shiitake mushrooms. We sat around the table I would come to love so much and ate like a family.

*To be amended later.
