Yesterday I attended the UnFancy Food Show at the East River Bar in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. While I was there to help my friend Scott sell his books and hand out postcards for my upcoming cookbook, I had the good fortune of being positioned between the McClure Brothers, who make their own pickles, and the Mast Brothers, who make their own chocolate. Their samples were both abundant. And you’d think eating chocolate and pickles all day would have kept me from eating my weight in pork on a stick (is it a problem when one measures in skewers? “I had six skewers of pork!”), but it did not. I now have my own little pork belly. And I love it.

Hi Emily,
We met briefly at the Unfancy Food Show and I ran out of time to interview you. I just posted the show I did with Tom Mylan up at my site http://www.fearlesscooking.tv.
We should talk. Let’s make a casserole on camera!
