Read Skirt!
Walking down the street in Charlotte, North Carolina, a few months ago, I saw a newspaper box that caught my eye; the magazine inside was gorgeous, big art on the cover. Tall, heavy paper, with a look and a feel and a meaning that satisfies. The very size of it thrilled me. The design is fresh, fresh. Reading it brought even more pleasure.Turns out that it was Skirt! Magazine, published by Nikki Hardin, a 37days reader. I recognized the name of the paper when I saw it from a distance on that city street because Nikki had just recently written me asking to publish a 37days essay in the "delicious" issue of Skirt!, coming in October.
October has arrived. That was quick.
That essay, a tribute to Chef Philip Sherameta (and many other chefs in my life), appears in this month’s issue of Skirt!
I hope if you visit the essay, you’ll stay to wander around Skirt! I think you’ll enjoy the journey. It is a magazine all about women, an attitude.
[And if you like reading about food, you might enjoy this 37days essay, Eat on a door, and perhaps if you’re hungry, you might enjoy these food sites that I like to visit especially when I’m trying to eat simply because they fulfill some kind of vicarious culinary satisfaction: Becks & Posh, Chocolate & Zucchini, Poco-Coco, Vegan Lunch Box, Jam-Faced. Fat-Free Vegan Kitchen, The Perfect Pantry, Lucullian Delights–An Italian Experience, Oswego Tea, and Zen Foodism. Yum.]
