[Leah's letter]
| The first photo shows Cindy and I doing a cooking demo on San Diego's local TV channel 8, "Healthy Dining". Just call us "The Two Hot Peppercorns". We did an Oven-Baked Talapia Almandine. You may recall I was a contestant in the Ms. California Contest for 50 years old, and older. (Wheh! I just made it!) It was fun, but lots of work. See photos below. Do you think I did justice to Blanche of the "Golden Girls"? My next venture is teaching cooking classes with my partner Cindy Holt at "Sur La Table" in Carlsbad. This store is like the Nordstroms of Michigan Ave for shopping ... don't get no better as far as cooking related items. The grand opening of the new store is August and we are booked one class a week till the end of the year. This is in addition to our regular cooking classes, AM and PM, "The Healthy Gourmet Cooking School" every other week which I do in my own kitchen of late. The class really enjoys the setting compared to commercial kitchen we were using. People can look out at the lake too. Anyway, hope you are all well. For the folks "back East" as they say here, stay in touch and send me a note. Love, Leah |
