For those of us who grew up in the South but have moved elsewhere, we love our roots and all they have provided. There's a lot that I've come to appreciate about the South. But let's be honest, most of us don't want to go back to "full Southern." We're happy with just a pinch here and there to add flavor to the life we live now. If you are not a Southerner, perhaps you'll come to better appreciate the little gifts the American South has given and continues to give our culture. This blog is written by Elizabeth Bloodworth.

Crook’s Corner, Carrboro, NC (just outside Chapel Hill)
This place did top-notch kind of “high end” Southern cooking way before the recent trend. I remember eating at Crook’s Corner in college and discovering the old-fashioned Southern staple of Hoppin’ John. I was enchanted.
