Welcome to Litsy!

I never would have listened to this if it wasn't for Nick Offerman! Enjoyable for this time of year.

A lot of research went into this book but was a slow read

I love Nick Offerman as a narrator.

#audiocooking the fishes I didn‘t get around to last night.

Really appreciate the discourse on attain, as we know him and in context, with an intelligent discussion around “coon-hunting” and southern white culture. Also to consider what southern culture was pre and post civil war, and what was appropriated and what was assimilated.

And whether Twain was racist, based on the language he chose, or whether he was really quite brilliant in understanding race. And America. I‘m leaning toward the latter.

Interesting, a tasty little treat about Twain‘s favorite foods, their origins and geography. Nice on audio, I could listen to Nick Offerman all day long! This was free on audible when I downloaded, may still be, worth checking! ⭐️⭐️⭐️

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Based on Mark Twain‘s extensive favorite foods list, this audio documentary provides a brief glimpse at American culinary history, discussing many regional cuisines and imparting socioeconomic insight as to why many dishes no longer exist. It‘s also a snapshot of Twain‘s life, his writing, and an ever-changing America. This Audible Original is narrated by massive Twain fan Nick Offerman and food journalist Andrew Beahrs. Very enjoyable!

Enjoying this immensely so far!

Audio quilting! Making a T-shirt quilt for my son 😄 shh! It‘s a secret! #audioquilting #makingmerry

A review of the Audible version. Advertised as a discovery of who Twain was by the food he ate. It is much more. It‘s an Americana Travelogue. A bio-pic. A local history lesson. A environmental plea. More of a podcast that a strait reading of a book. I found it interesting.

This is really a fantastic and intriguing look at Mark Twain, food, and culture. Perfect to audiobook & cook for tomorrow!
Not the tagged book as this is an #audibleoriginal

I love this book even more than before. Love Twain. Love Offerman. Love food.

Listening to this while driving through Hannibal Missouri!

Has anyone else checked out Twain‘s Feast on Audible? It is a fascinating examination of Mark Twain- his food, cultural influence, and writings... and the relevance of those things today. It sounded incredibly boring but I love Nick Offerman and he is never boring, so I gave it a shot. Love!

I have recommended or gifted this to so many friends and family! It is funny, super engaging, and perfection for foodies or Twain fans. #FunFridayPhoto
