Beyond the food, Tupelo, as a restaurant, embraces the entirety of its cuisine’s cultural heritage. Zydeco and folk played over the bustle of the restaurant, where colorful southern cityscapes adorned the walls, and playful glass chandeliers hung over the bar. A sort of cozy hominess oozes from the warmly shining copper tables and the mason jars the restaurant uses as water cups. Named for a city in Mississippi (or the tree that gave it its name, or the mild and thin honey made from these trees indigenous to mostly southern states) Tupelo is a restaurant that plunges...
...understand their respective circumstances. As Michael, relative newcomer Aaron is a strong yet vulnerable gentle giant—or, as Leigh Anne affectionately terms him, Ferdinand the Bull, the hero of his favorite children’s book. Bullock, too, wholeheartedly inhabits her role as pushy, driven, no-nonsense Southern wife cum interior decorator, complete with a perfect accent no doubt drawn from her Virginia roots.

But if you live in southern Louisiana, you still might want to elevate your home...
...ceremony, a modest affair by Afghan standards, was a celebration of traditional headgear. Tribesmen from the east sported vast swaths of butter-yellow silk looped into view-blocking turbans, while their southern cousins opted for the more somber black and gray. Northerners were identified by their flat-topped woolen pakols; the urban élites by their peaked karakul caps. They were outdone only by the portraits of Afghanistan's former rulers that lined the walls of the reception hall - some of those wore helmets. The first few rows were occupied by suited foreign dignitaries, including U.S. Secretary of State Hillary...
