“my reign as the North Carolina Pecan Harvest Festival queen was, in a word that I just now made up, Pecan-TASTIC! My lifelong dream of riding on a float and doing the demure “unscrew the lightbulb” wave was finally realized. I cut ribbons, I extolled the virtues of the pecan, I walked around for two whole days with a crown pinned to my head, I had breakfast with Miss North Carolina at our pecan-TASTIC B and B. Miss North Carolina, Jessica Jacobs, is slim and tall and gorgeous. As we chatted, ju...st the two of us, she dined on a small compote of fresh fruit and a dainty cup of herbal tea. I, on the other hand, had three eggs, homemade sausage, toast, juice, two of those compotes, a hunk of blueberry-oat coffee cake, fried potatoes, and coffee. I’m fairly certain Miss North Carolina has never, as I did, leaned over to anyone and asked, “Are you gonna finish that?” As we sat in matching tiaras at the breakfast table, I was struck by how queenly she was. I had much to learn. I also had butter on my chin.MoreLessRead More Read Less
