JULY MEETING: From Time Card to Test Kitchen

When Stacey Little began writing restaurant reviews for a hometown paper a little over ten years ago, he had no idea that sharing his love of food with his community would become a career that placed him on a national stage. His passion led to creation of one of the top food blogs in the world, a best selling cookbook, and a career he could have never imagined. Join us as he takes us through the key elements and shares his personal insight on what led to that success.

Blogger and Wall Street Journal best-selling author, Stacey is committed to getting folks back to the table for dinner. His quick and easy recipes are allowing families to get a home-cooked meal on the table without a lot of hassle or expense. He has appeared on The Today Show and Fox and Friends and has lent his talents to national brands like Betty Crocker, White Lily, Martha White, Kraft, and celebrities like Queen Latifah and Reese Witherspoon. He's been featured in print publications like Southern Living, Taste of the South, Family Circle, and Better Homes and Gardens. Stacey's easy, delicious recipes and heartfelt stories have brought millions to his blog, SouthernBite.com, since he created it in 2008. His cookbook, The Southern Bite Cookbook, is available at book retailers across the country and online. Stacey's deep Southern roots have him firmly planted in central Alabama where he lives with his wife, little boy, dog, and his collection of cast iron skillets.
