Forgot to post this but check out @ChefJohnTesar’s comment here. Wild to think about the sweetheart deals that will get handed out even as some are evicted.

"I see my culture exploited. I am told 'soul food is not soigné.' I hear that my hair is threatening. Smiling on the outside, screaming within. I feel the pilot light of my soul flicker. COVID-19 face coverings are easy, I’ve donned a mask for decades." washingtoncitypaper.com/food/young-hun…

Although Pegu is now closed, it doesn't mean that you still can't enjoy a virtual drink there with your friends. I've been using this photo as my zoom background, and wanted to share it with you. Cheers to all ✨🍸✨
