Cake Cutting Thursday at Shara's Paperie
Posted by Susan Ellis on Thu, Nov 5, 2009 at 11:25 AM
Is there anything more delicious-sounding than a cake-cutting ceremony?
Today at Shara’s Paperie, there will be such an event to announce its new line of gift cakes, Cake Bliss, produced locally by Hilda Osarogiagbon.
Osarogiagbon says the path to Cake Bliss and Shara’s Paperie was like one of a boomerang.

Farmer's Market Midtown Open
Posted by Susan Ellis on Mon, Nov 2, 2009 at 5:50 PM
This afternoon, Food News writer Pam Denney and I stopped by the newly opened Farmer's Market Midtown at 1632 Union.
Owner John "JR" Raney had originally tried his luck with an open-air Midtown market earlier this summer. When that didn't work out, he decided to take it indoors in a space that was previously a consignment furniture store.

Restaurant News Opening Night at Stella Marris
Posted by Susan Ellis on Fri, Oct 30, 2009 at 2:43 PM
Last night, Food News writer Pam Denney and I went to the soft opening of Stella Marris, Steve Cooper's restaurant that had been the subject of protests by Cordovans who were concerned about Cooper's background in adult entertainment.
To say the place — which is two-story and seats 330 — is ornate doesn't quite describe it...

CMI, the Flyer's parent company, is holding a Jack-o-Lantern contest.
Check out this entry of a pumpkin eating gourds. I always suspected pumpkins were vicious like that!

Dale Skaggs: Horticulturalist/Brewer
Posted by Susan Ellis on Thu, Oct 29, 2009 at 2:23 PM
Skaggs took the time to answer a few questions about beer for Hungry Memphis.
You're both a horticulturist and brewer. Where does the twain meet?
The fact that all the ingredients in beer are from cultivated plants is a natural convergence of brewing and gardening. Both involve growing living things for our purposes. In brewing, yeast grows in a media of natural sugars; and in gardening, plants grow in a media of soil. Historically, if you look at the beers brewed in medieval times, many more plant-based ingredients were used than only the barley and hops used today. Both gardening and brewing are celebrations of the natural world.
