This Carnival is special

The 113th Carnival of the Vanities is hosted at Food Basics:

Why on earth is a foodie hosting this wordie event?
Because man does not live by bread alone.

What I did not know until today was that the blog author’s (Trudy Schuett’s) father just passed away. I’m really impressed that she hosted a blog Carnival during a time like that. Her dad, Reuben Carl Whitlock, was born the same year as my dad: 1909. (Reading the obit, I can tell he was a hell of a good guy; they don’t make ’em like that anymore.)
My sincerest sympathies to Ms Schuett and the rest of the family.
Everyone please go read the Carnival. It’s incredibly, edibly done!
