This week we’re talking about Victorian-era sin-eaters and more cashier-less stores before we head down the rabbit hole of Thanksgiving sides and get to arguing about what does and does not belong on the table. Danielle introduces us to Georgia-style Pecan Pie (yikes!), and Sherród (not so) humble brags about his cookies. As always we have some stunning instacrushes and all the food happenings that we love, hate, and ate.
