I started Nichelle Newsletter over three years ago. I use Substack to publish this newsletter. I have been writing about food and culture on a weekly basis bringing readers news, recipes, tidbits that they can only find in my content.
This week I am launching a premium (paid) version of my newsletter. If you are like me, you have probably paused or even cancel subscriptions to some of the streaming services, because they are not giving what you want. Well, I may not be Netflix or Hulu Plus, but I am offering information about food trends, how to reduce food waste, recipes, and photos of delicious food that will make your mouth water. Here’s the link to subscribe to Nichelle Newsletter. It is only $5/month or $50/year.
June is National Soul Food Month which has been around since 2001. Juneteenth is now a national holiday. The celebration of African American foodways should be daily. I would love to see a children’s book on African American foodways. What if it was an ABCs of soul food?! That would be a great way to teach the kids about soul food.
Today is Pi Day. Friday is St. Patrick’s Day. There will be lots of fun in between. The 31401, the newsletter about Savannah that I co-edit with my friend Tiffany has been going well. We have published a weekly newsletter for over six months. We have over 1000 followers on Instagram and over 200 subscribers on Substack. Check out this week’s newsletter.
I started blogging in 2004. I pay for hosting this site; however I barely use it. I have on my to-do list to write more, so this will be where I will do it.
Things I have to get off my chest:
Velma on HBO MAX is unfunny and awful.
The Gossip Girl reboot writers has no idea what show they are doing. No wonder, the show has been cancelled.
Everyone making jokes about Hank Willis Thomas‘ MLK sculpture in Boston are acting like middle school children.
I am launching a new local newsletter with my friend Tiffany. The 31401 will focus on events and community here in Savannah. Check it out and subscribe.
If you google me, and you find this website then I hope that you will also subscribe to my FREE weekly newsletter, Nichelle Newsletter. In this issue, I link to the USPS site for getting at-home tests, the legendary Paschal’s restaurant in Atlanta, cooking mushrooms and more.
