Events and Brussel Sprout Gratin Live


Today is a little different post. I was on fox4 kc this morning.  I made the Brussel Sprout Gratin on live tv. You can watch the segment here at FOX 4.  This is a recipe in my new cookbook Food For the Family Soul/ Call Your Mother In Law.  The cookbook was officially launched yesterday.   The book is available at many retailers, Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Apple iBooks, Kobo and many more.  You can click on links below to get your book.
I was so nervous getting ready for today.  I had friends calling to offer words of support early as I was headed to the station.  It was amazing I was interviewed by Abby Eden at Fox 4.  She was so sweet and made me feel relaxed.  I could not have made it through my first cooking segment without my wonderful friend Karen.  She helped me set everything up and made my Brussel Sprout Gratin Photo ready.





I wanted to share with you the two events I have coming up you can sign up and reserve your book for the events.  Both events have a limited number of books so get yours today. Buy your tickets at the links below.

Slowly stir in milk and half and half.  Add cheese.  continue to stir while cooking over medium heat until thickened.  Add artichokes, crab, white wine and white pepper.  Simmer a couple of minutes and serve hot.   Enjoy this wonderful soup.
