You've heard local food writer Kelly Alexander expound on local eats, holiday treats and culinary feats on The State of Things before. But today she tells us her personal story, which includes the rediscovery of Clementine Paddleford, the most famous food writer you've never heard of. Kelly has a new book out called, "Hometown Appetites: The Story of Clementine Paddleford, the Forgotten Food Writer Who Chronicled How America Ate" (Gotham Books/2008). She'll share stories from Clementine's life, her own life and give us her thoughts on eating in North Carolina.
