Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
Championship Bogs: We traveled to Loris, South Carolina, where the annual Loris Bog-Off Festival is a hotly contested affair. Entrants cook up bogs in large cast-iron Dutch ovens, carefully stirring with wooden "bogging spoons" worn down from years of pot stirring. Recipes are guarded jealously, but the basics - chicken, sausage and rice - are shared by all. Magazine Editors
