Girls and Guns

Or this post could alternatively be titled "Shana's 15 Minutes".  Several months ago I was approached by a friend of a friend who was putting together a little internet chat show about food.  Ever the fame whore I jumped on the opportunity.  I'm not going to lie - fantasies of being the next internet sensation did cross my mind.  Maybe I'd follow in Rachel, Nate or Dr. Oz's footsteps and be discovered by Oprah...

Our host Sari Colt put together a really interesting group.  Besides me there was Andrea Toole aka Canadian Foodie Girl, Adam Waxman from Dine Magazine, and the lovely and poised Jennifer Gee.  Suddenly I was nervous.  These were people with magazines and people who know every foodie/blogger and chef in the city and here I am mucking around in the garden and taking pictures of my dinner with a little point and shoot camera. 

We filmed our first episode at the end of August and I was a bundle of nerves.  I didn't tell anyone in advance and even afterward hesitated sharing it.  The camera really magnifies all your little quirks!  But in the interest of sharing here it is people - all 45 glorious minutes - watch and see if you notice my eye twitching:

It took while to coordinate our busy schedules to film a second episode but we finally got it together in early November.  Sadly Adam wasn't available this time around but us girls had fun!  Surprisingly, with our all girl panel, this episode featured heavily on hunting, gathering and meat eating.  We jokingly referred to it as Girls and Guns (I'm sure this will garner us some interesting internet fans).

It's also worth mentioning that I've always made it a point to never the refer to the Hubs by name here at Folks Gotta Eat.  This is to spare him any potential embarrassment to the people of the internet. But I somehow forgot that fact when we were live streaming...sorry hon!

With our giggles this episode might not be as polished as our first one but it was a hell of a lot of fun:

Andrea is fantastic at blogging in a timely fashion, and even better at sharing links to all of the restaurants, chefs, books, events and causes we talk about on the show.

Chew on This, episode 2: Giggles, Girls, Guns and Glenn

We are already planning our next episode and I'm so glad I've gotten to meet these wonderful, interesting people.  Even if the only person watching is Glenn...I mean Hubs....oh just...never mind.

Recent highlights have included cheesemaking on the kitchen counter and curing pancetta in the basement, much to the horror of her adoring, yet dubious husband, and to the delight of her two ravenous Beagles (who are now banned from the basement until further notice).
