Addie Broyles

You’d think keeping up with Austin’s ongoing foodsplosion, where cuisine-related happenings and places multiply faster than rabbit dishes at Qui, would be more than enough work for a woman. But that’s just the start of what Addie Broyles does. In addition to her regular Statesman column and blog, "Relish Austin," the award-winning writer and social media master serves as special projects chair of the Austin Food Blogger Alliance, spearheaded and oversaw the production of the Alliance’s cookbook last year, and contributes regularly to the Feminist Kitchen website. She has two small kids and also quilts, apparently. We don’t know when she does it all, but her intelligence, breadth of knowledge, and community spirit leave readers both full and hungry for more.
