When Katherine Hysmith, The Boston Globe contributor and founder of the food blog The Young Austinian, left her native Texas to pursue a graduate degree in gastronomy from Boston University, she brought her Southern roots with her. Her current home—shared with her husband, Josh Gantt—is a mix of family heirlooms, vintage finds, and a growing collection of cast iron skillets that are older than she is. With a Southern sensibility that blends the clean lines of Donna Hay with the organized clutter of Jane Austen, what more could one knead?
