Miss Joy Wilson. Known by many adoring fans as, simply, Joy the Baker and known to me as one of my bestest lady friends. I also refer to her as Joy the Baker in conversation which could possibly seem weird, but I AM one of her biggest fans. So there. She is one of the funniest bitches I know, a fellow bourbon enthusiast, has a cat named Jules, maybe makes biscuits better than my Mammaw (shh, don’t tell nobody) and has her very first cookbook coming out next year. Exciting times for this lovely lover of flour, sugar and butter.
Name: Joy Wilson. Hometown: Los Angeles, CA. Current location: LA
Favorite summertime beverage: White wine sangria with peaches and lemon verbena.
Favorite cocktail or spirit: I love Manhattans. Sometimes I think they’re dinner.
Favorite place to grab a drink: I always love an afternoon glass of wine at Gjelina, or a cocktail at Tasting Kitchen. Westside fancypants.
Favorite toast: “Get that water out my way!” [editor's note: in addendum- "Where my big girls at?"]
Favorite post-dinner quaff: What’s a quaff? Is that some sort of cupcake? If so… chocolate.
Favorite food & beverage pairing: I love thin crust pizza and lambrusco.
If you could travel to one region of the world right now for its food and/or drink where would you go? New Orleans, where I would eat and drink everything in sight.
What’s for sipper? Bourbon Grapefruit punch with chocolate mint. I like it.
And if you don’t know, now you know- Joy loves doing the dishes.

Joy, I just have to say you are so cute and I love that you love Manhattans/bourbon. I aspire to be that classy. I’ve moved on to full-bodied reds, but no straight liquor just yet. Except in shot form. *Ashamed face*
