Katie was a Guest on NECN again!
On December 21, 2009, I was a guest on NECN’s Morning Report. I demonstrated how to make Chicken Noodle Soup and recommended using a vacuum seal product to freeze any leftover soup. While the segment was only a few minutes - it takes a lot of time to prepare to be on TV! These are some of the things I have to organize before making a TV appearance.
- Decide on recipe to demonstrate
- Make Make several batches of recipe so I can…
- Show the final product
- Show the different stages of the recipe
- Share recipe with staff at the station
- Layout all of the supplies, including a tablecloth, a stand with a copy of the cookbook, all needed utensils to demonstrate the recipe
- Practice - to make sure you have all of the needed supplies and utensils
- Pack up all of the above the night before
- The morning of the show - leave for the station allowing plenty of time in case there are traffic or inclement weather issues - you do not want to be late!!!
You can watch a video of the segment on the NECN website!

The Passing of Atticus Harley Berg Wilton Peterson
It is with great sadness that I share the news that Atticus passed away in December 2009. He was 12 ˝ years old and while he showed signs of aging, he was active and social until the end. He is missed - by many.
Katie Got Married!
I am excited to

Passing of Putty
It is
with great sadness that I report that Putty passed away on
Labor Day – Monday, September 7, 2009. She was 13 years old –
very unusual for an English bulldog to reach such an age. She
was a sweetheart and will be sorely missed.

Katie Presents at The Big E! in Springfield,
MA
It is the 9th largest fair in the country and I
performed at 4:00 pm & 7:00 pm on Friday, September 26th
in The New England Harvest Kitchen. I promoted You're the
Cook! and demonstrated how to make Yogurt Fruit Shakes,
Parmesan Pita Triangles and Superior Deviled Eggs. The
wonderful staff helped pass out hundreds of samples of the
shake and deviled eggs and the crowd learned a few new tips
& techniques!

Mary B.
Devine
April 30, 1932 - May 16, 2008
It is with great sadness that I inform you that Mary B.
Devine passed away. I dedicated my first cookbook to her
because she was my first culinary instructor and was a great
family friend. Mary taught me how to make many recipes
including Angle Food Cake with Chocolate Whipped Frosting,
Eclairs and various types of cookies. I have fond memories of
the times she fostered litters of kittens for the SPCA or when
she made cut-out sugar cookies for my class when I was in
elementary school. My thoughts and prayers are with her
family.
Anniversary!

this month (May 2006) "You're the Cook! A guide to mixing it

classes at bookstores ~ over 60 radio show guest appearances ~
10 TV guest appearances ~ 30 + Barnes & Noble author
signing events ~ 15 + guest appearances at farm stands &

Cooking Series at the Haverhill Public
Library
The Haverhill Public Library in Haverhill, MA received a
EqualAccess Libraries (TM) grant - given by the EqualAccess
Libraries Institute: a program of Libraries for the Future and
the Massachusetts Board of Library Commissioners to conduct
programs targeting 10 - 15 year olds that focus on health. I
conducted 5 cooking classes, two of which were designed to
introduce and test recipes for a future cookbook #2! The
Haverhill Gazette ran a wonderful full page article about
the program and the following are a few of the comments the
students wrote about the class on a survey.
the cooking class was wonderful ~ very nice ~
the class was great ~
