The Washington Post talks to DC's own contestant on Food Network Star, food writer Mary Beth Albright, as she advances past the third episode of the reality show. She cites her days teaching gardening at the U.S. House of Representatives Preschool as inspiration for her culinary style: "These are parents who work on the Hill, not parents who live in a food desert. They have access to fresh food, and it’s still difficult for them to put fresh meals on the table, and I totally get that. I try to make it about the community aspect so the burden is not so much on one person." [WaPo]
