Edacious
edacious (e·da·cious – /iˈdāSHəs/ – adjective. Of, relating to, or given to eating. From the Latin edere, to eat. Synonyms: voracious – gluttonous – ravenous – greedy – piggish.)
How do you stay passionate for your chosen profession? How do you stay hungry for your life when the obstacles seem to outweigh the triumphs? How do you stay EDACIOUS?
Once a month we will explore this topic while eating great local food. Because everything happens when you break bread together. This is a podcast for anyone ravenous about what they do or looking to be that way. Let's allow REAL conversation to develop, so we can talk, laugh, commiserate, and CONNECT. By fostering connection, we celebrate our bounty and create community. Edacious podcast, a true Connection Initiative.
Nae Libby is a writer of fiction, travel, essay, and food. She’s obsessed with vintage cookbooks and diners, adores brunch with cocktails, prefers barefoot picnics to fine dining, and believes biscuits with honey to be a cure-all. Her spirit animals are Larry Bly and Laban Johnson from the legendary show, “Cookin’ Cheap”. She is not a chef or a foodie. Just someone who loves to cook, eat, travel, and write about it all. Hopefully, she won't piss off too many people. But then that wouldn't be any fun, would it?
