I don’t know why more restaurants haven’t followed @RedHenLex’s model of individual table, sealed outdoor cabanas for #covidlife, but I am soooo thankful for it! Been out to eat exactly twice in the last year, and it’s been there each time because of it.

Dear Arkansas, you are not obliged to serve her.
Sarah Sanders is set to announce for Arkansas governor in a video going up tomorrow morning, a person familiar with the plan says, confirming @jdawsey1.

Will that be one cheese board or two, ma’am?

A refreshing change.
New Biden @PressSec says she will reinstate daily briefings — including Covid briefings w health officials — except on weekends. “I’m not a monster,” she offers as an aside, by way of explanation.

I've been longing for that cheese board ever since. I'd forgive a lot for a comped cheese board.

Oh if it were only cake that she missed out on. The reality was far worse.

Republicans were more outraged over Sarah Huckabee Sanders being denied service at a Restaurant over her dangerous lies than they are over a terrorist attack on our nation. That really speaks to what they are.

Like she removed and grifted that free cheese platter from the @RedHenLex?

Trump can't grasp that 1st Amendment allows companies to decide who gets to use their platform - or eat their food...up to and including the President. Remember @RedHenLex and the Patriots who took a stand and mountain of grief

Media, the word you are avoiding is “coup.” I’m not saying they will succeed - they will not. But they are trying to overturn a free, fair election and this deserves at least as much attention as the full week you devoted to Sarah Sanders being refused service at a restaurant.

As quoted here, I have complicated feelings about Meyer’s unconditional invitation to the table. We probably agree on most points of hospitality; we clearly differ on points of conscience. It’s not that hard: Power hate = not welcome.

Should restaurant owners offer a seat at the table to diners who represent everything they despise? CAN they legally refuse to serve such diners? I dig into the topic a bit after @dhmeyer’s tweet this weekend. washingtonpost.com/food/2020…

I love it when a cocktail lives up to its name — even when — especially when — it’s done curbside... “The Bee’s Knees,” indeed, @RedHenLex...
