Well, show number two is in the can (and the editing room) and we were thrilled to have NECI chef Curtiss Hemm on hand to prepare three soups for us and talk about his project, The Pink Ribbon Cookbook.

Curtiss spoke eloquently of his wife’s battle with breast cancer (she’s doing great) and the soups he prepared are three of her favorites. In case you did not realize it, October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, so the visit from Curtiss was both timely and informative.

Curtiss has collected more than 100 recipes for the new cookbook, and proceeds will benefit Susan G. Komen for a Cure. To learn more about the Pink Ribbon Cookbook or make a donation to Komen for a Cure, click here.

The cookbook is due out in a few months, and we will have details on how you can purchase it as soon as we get them.

In the photo above from the show, Curtiss and co-host Carol Day have a carrot-peeling contest. Carol claimed victory.

Hey! We would like to hear from you. To drop us a note here at the blog, simply click the “comments” link at the bottom of any post, and let us have it!

We hope to see you in the studio. Our next show is Thursday, October 11, featuring Chef/Owner Adam Coulter of A Perfect Pear in Bradford, Vermont.

Cheers!

Tony
