Steel Magnolias Podcast Laura Beth Peters and Lainie Stubblefield

We have found two Southern Jewish women that share our passion in preserving history around the dinner table!
We are sitting down with Rachel Gordon Barnett and Lyssa Kligman Harvey, two lifelong South Carolinians, to discuss the intersection of traditional Jewish dishes with classic Southern ingredients and African American culinary traditions. 
The American South boasts some of the oldest communities of people of Jewish faith. In the 1600s Jewish people began settling in Charleston, South Carolina, and by the 1700s South Carolina had the largest Jewish population in the United States. The family recipes and the stories that accompany their origins and adaptations in the American South reveal the deep and storied lives of Jewish people, families, and communities across America.

In 1955, two Georgia neighbors opened up a restaurant that would change the world.  Joe Rogers Sr. and Tom Forkner were living in Avondale Estates, GA, when they decided to open a 24-hour, sit-down restaurant for their friends and neighbors, focused on people on both sides of the counter.  That first restaurant opened the door to create the Waffle House brand that you see today.
We love this place and hope you have a Waffle House near you!

The Golden Isles
 
Halfway between Savannah, Georgia and Jacksonville, Florida lies a nature-lover’s dream vacation spot: The Golden Isles.
These Georgia islands have something for everybody, from luxurious accommodations and great golf courses to more modest spots with marsh lands and bike trails for outdoor exploration. 
Lainie personally spent some time this summer at Jekyll Island, but we will also discuss St. Simon Island, Little St. Simon Island, Sea Island,  and Brunswick (port city.)
