These are my people. Aunt Lovester's great-grandfather discovered Boneyville, Kentucky. Legends. Remember them. Remember us.

Grateful for a beautiful night of words and a sold-out house at @themercantilelib. What kind staff and stewards. Nights like this are a brilliant respite from the rest. Being in this special place felt like a sort of church. I hope to get back soon.

Part memoir, part cookbook, Praisesong for the Kitchen Ghosts weaves those stories together with recipes, family photos, and a lyrical imagination to present a culinary portrait of a family that has lived and worked the earth of the mountains for over a century.
