Julie had met chef <a href=\"http:\/\/crookscorner.com\/smith.htm#about\">Bill Smith<\/a> earlier in the day when she recorded a show with DG Martin for <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wchl1360.com\/\">WCHL<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.podcastpickle.com\/users\/cryptonaut\/profile\">Lulu Blooker Prize organizer and podcaster, Jason Adams<\/a> and his wife Ren joined Julie, Sally, Michael (Julie&#8217;s official escort\/driver for this leg of her trip) and me at Crook&#8217;s. We got to catch up on some ideas about blooks and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.lulublookerprize.com\/\">the Lulu Blooker Prize<\/a> (Julie was last year&#8217;s winner and one of this year&#8217;s  judges; I was a judge last year and will be again this year) and about those who Julie calls her &#8220;Bleaders&#8221; &#8212; I guess &#8220;blreader&#8221; can&#8217;t be pronounced and &#8220;breader&#8221; would have problems too.<\/p>\n<p>Julie is looking forward to a visit home to Austin for <a href=\"http:\/\/www.txconferenceforwomen.org\/index.php\">the Texas Conference for Women<\/a> on October 12 and on getting to work on her new project &#8212; learning to be a butcher. These are I think somehow related.<\/p>\n<p>One big gripe, not with Julie, but with the radio: WCHL used to podcast <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wchl1360.com\/details.html?id=161\">DG&#8217;s Who&#8217;s Talking? show<\/a>, but the last update shown is back <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wchl1360.com\/listen.html?showname=dgpodcast\">in July 2006<\/a> or <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wchl1360.com\/listen.html?showname=dgmartin2\">in November 2005<\/a> depending on where you click on the show&#8217;s home page. So I can&#8217;t be sure when the show will run or if we who need to timeshift to hear it will ever get a chance to do so.<\/p>\n<p>BTW <a href=\"http:\/\/crookscorner.com\/\">Crook&#8217;s Corner<\/a> is the sponsor of DG&#8217;s show according to WCHL&#8217;s website.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Was over at the Regulator last night for Julie Powell&#8217;s reading and signing of her book, just out in paper, Julie and Julia (now subtitled &#8220;My year of cooking dangerously&#8221; in hardback subtitled &#8220;365 Days, 524 Recipes, 1 Tiny Apartment Kitchen.&#8221; Afters we headed out to Crook&#8217;s Corner to test the shrimp and grits.
