Alice Laussade writes about food, kids, music, and anything else she finds to be completely ridiculous. She created and hosts the Dallas event, Meat Fight, which is a barbecue competition and fundraiser that benefits the National MS Society. Last year, the event raised $100,000 for people living with MS, and 750 people could be seen shoving sausage links into their faces. And one time, she won a James Beard Award for Humor in Writing. That was pretty cool.

In Dallas, there's not a lot that hasn't been artisanal-ed already. We've got artisanal dog biscuits, artisanal popcorn, artisanal toast, artisanal vapes and we've even got a bunch of artisanal chicks bitching at each other every Monday night.
