This week, we invent a Food Schmooze® Shrimp Cocktail Bloody Mary with two local mixes, dream up grab-and-go combos for Ball jars (some sweet, some savory), sip on a rosé and a white wine from France, and share family recipes from Add a Pinch blogger Robyn Stone’s cookbook, based on her blog. Think: Southern classics lightened up—summery Citrus Shrimp, Lemon Meringue Pie with Mile-High Meringue, and a divine Georgia Peach Crisp. Plus, the gang gives shout-outs to locals making good food (and handy kitchen gadgets). We tell you where to eat outdoors in Mystic (ah, the views right now!), and Faith describes the best baba ganoush on the East Coast.
