did someone say junior league cookbooks?

"start your ovens" is the league in bristol, yes the bristol where NASCAR races, and yes NASCAR folks contributed.

i have 2 recipes in flavors of VA. like 15 of my friends' moms are in one of a kind. gasparilla and tidewater on the half shell also rule.

every city has a cursèd corner - iirc @actioncookbook.com did a newsletter on this? - and after many years of fallow after a series of failed restaurants, they're giving an oil change place a try on ours. good luck.

context: jaylin is the lead bench player for the thunder, he rarely starts but gets lots of assists and rebounds, and his teammates call him the vibes captain because he is just ridiculously silly and keeps everyone in a good mood so they play well.
