Happy Wednesday wherever you’re listening from! Ecstatic about these next two episodes, the first of which being my older sister Candace. Being the oldest out of all of us, she constantly dealt with being the litmus test for how the rest of us would be treated. A Brooklynite in the 90s and early 2000’s, she moved to charlotte at the age of 14. She details the stark differences between the two, from the actual places to her specific living situations. Candace also cites a high school trip to Australia as her introduction to sustainable development. This led her to Appalachian state and eventually, heavily influenced her approach to cooking. The pandemic was painstakingly difficult for Mollison as it was for countless others, but she used the time to cook nearly everyday. She even began incorporating ingredients grown in her own garden. As some of her dishes began gaining traction on social media, Candace’s confidence grew and rightfully so. She is currently entered in the Favorite chef amateur chef competition, run by Carla Hall! All voters can contribute one daily free vote, and more if they do feel. Polls close in a few days, so if you’re a fan of anything Candace has ever made, make sure to vote! Recorded 7.18.23
