CHRISTOPHER WILLIAMS – Read and See his Recipe for Watermelon Salad! – “A Houston based chef. Endowing food with deeper meaning is Williams’ bread and butter. He has culinary entrepreneurship and community service in his DNA. The great-grandson of a pioneering Texas businesswoman, Williams feeds a lot of Houston’s foodie crowd at his restaurant Lucille’s, in the city’s Museum District. That’s where people come to meet and greet over plates of what Lucille’s advertises as “well-refined Southern cuisine, defined by history.” – Written By: Karen Grigsby Bates

TINY DESK: – Watch the VIDEO and HEAR HER INTERVIEW! INCREDIBLE – She has helped build a music school on Easter Island Out of Recycled Material…. “Mahani Teave,- the pianist who offers this engaging performance from the music school she co-founded. As a child, Teave saw the first piano brought to the island in 1992 and dreamed of becoming a world-class concert pianist. It was a dream she fulfilled, but just as she was poised to launch her international career, an even stronger dream tugged at her heart.”

GOOD GRIT MAGAZINE – “Is the only southern culture magazine capturing the authenticity of the perseverance that exists in the human spirit. We believe that the South is compiled of people from here and people who love it here–and maybe they aren’t “from around here”–but they’ve fallen in love and they are staying. The south has been begging for a progressive and truthful representation of who we are and who we want to be, and that also pays tribute to the legacies worthy of moving us forward. ood Grit is a movement walked out by compassionate and empathetic humans who want to leave the world better than they found it.  Our stories stretch from the origin of your great grandma’s biscuit recipe, to new emerging artists of all kinds. The technology and innovation that inspires us to wellness for our hearts and bodies. It’s about travel to the familiar and to the completely foreign, and stories about the people that stand in the cultural divides with hands outstretched to both sides, finally bringing us together.
