Not to be a thread hog, but I just received a Tweet from Steve Paul this morning, the reporter from the Kansas City Star who attended all of the events from this year's gathering, and he said that the magazine article he is writing is scheduled to appear on August 30th (assuming it doesn't get bumped).

The pictures from our amazing brunch at Crum Farm on the final day of the weekend are now up and posted on my blog. Please feel free to stop by and check them out.

You can read about it here: Brunch Is Bountiful

There are also two entries (the previous two before the brunch) that detail our dinner at the 2131 Studio space as well.

I enjoyed reading such a complete posting of everything I had to miss. I love my job but sometimes - .

He tweeted about it again today, so it looks like it's still on.

He's got a picture of Kerry's curry up!

The whole story is now up: CLICK


Edited to add: No doubt several people will want copies from the print version. If you will contact the newspaper, I would think they would allow you to purchase copies of the magazine only, and send via snail mail for a reasonable fee. If not, contact me and I'll see what kind of plan B I can concoct.

Nice picture of me chowing down on a rib.

I'd like to think they used it because everyone else had bbq sauce on their faces!

Great piece, and some really nice shots, too. What a great time that weekend was -- and Steve Paul's piece brought it all back again. Damn . . . I miss you guys!

YAY! I think they did a nice job overall. I miss Crum Farm.

YAY! I think they did a nice job overall.  I miss Crum Farm. 

you're just sayin' that because they fed you well and didn't make you pull weeds!

I miss Crum Farm, too, and the Crums! That really was the highlight for me--not just because the food was great, but the Crums were so warm and welcoming. My mom really enjoyed talking to Mr. Crum (Jim?).

Marmish--did you notice you were promoted to principal?

I was just thinking that, too. Great people, great food. It doesn't get better than that!

Nice write up - captured the weekend wonderfully.

I miss everyone - and I miss the BBQ! And the chicharron! I've been thinking a lot about the BBQ.

I went through a serious pork belly phase after my return - made some chicharron - that went over well at work.

That's the easiest promotion I've ever gotten! (I'm the assistant principal, not the principal) Luckily, the crabby parent at school waiting when I got there today didn't know. She wanted the PRINCIPAL, not little old me.

Crum Farm definitely started the let's-run-away-to-the-country-and-have-brunches-and-dinners-and-grow-stuff conversation in my house. Unfortunately, I don't think it's going to happen anytime soon. I probably should have spent more time really talking to them about the reality, but I was too busy swooning in my own little fantasyland. And eating.

Well I'll be sure and tell the Crums everybody said hello when I see them at the Parkville Market in the morning!

Gotta get there early........lots of wedding reception dishes for tomorrow depend upon the precious produce.......

Yes, and it better be good or I'm keeping the gift

Darn, I thought I would be breaking the big news when I saw Steve Paul's Facebook link about the article! LOL

I think he did a great job capturing not only the events, but a lot of the personalities, too.

[Maison Rustique]

I've got a copy of the magazine/article if anyone would like it.

[Zeemanb]

Well, my mom called to let me know that the five or so minutes I actually spent working in the kitchen got me a picture in the Star........classic!
