I have cried a dozen times trying to post this video, deleting it, and trying again. This is the park where my kids played. The restaurant where I fell in love. An art studio of a dear friend. It’s a video of Asheville to you, but it’s home to me. Please don’t forget us.

When Luke Combs, Eric Church, and James Taylor announced the relief aid Concert for Carolina (October 26), it sold out in hours. But a few VIP seats remain. Donate $250 to the Always Asheville Fund or bid on VIP packages to win. Enter at exploreasheville.com/concert… @VisitAsheville

Okra is thought to be of African origin, brought to the US three centuries ago by enslaved people (the word okra is derived from the West African word nkruma). I love to use okra in my rendition of okra and tomato stew with garam masala, coriander, lime, and cucumber yogurt.

Tomato Sandwiches Excerpt from my cookbook, “Thoughtful Cooking: Recipes Rooted in the New South” The simplicity of good white bread with mayonnaise, vine-ripe heirloom tomatoes, salt, pepper, EVOO, and basil is the quintessential summer treat. #thoughtful #cooking #cookbook
