The Dessert Queen Gets Published

I've always been a dessert queen. I've got too much of a sweet tooth, and always go straight for the chocolate.

However, I claim this title because I seem to be making a niche for myself by writing little food features on desserts. Check out these two stories I wrote for the Austin Decider site about NadaMoo! and Holy Cacao.

I was particularly excited about the comment on the Holy Cacao story because the commenter visited Holy Cacao after reading the write-up in The Onion print edition. I've been skeptical of whether people actually read those little restaurant write-ups in the back of The Onion, but apparently, this person did. Plus, my writing (with some help from my editor) was convincing enough to send someone out of their way to try a cake ball.

You can read my Holy Cacao write-up online, and also check out the one I wrote on Bennu Coffee. Both were published last week.

And, props to Anslee/SavannahRed for taking kick-ass photos for both stories.
