Two things: 1.I need your vote and 2. I am looking for new show ideas!

Happy Wednesday!  I need your help in this contest.  I know that GMG is everywhere and has lots of readers and this Cape Ann Girl needs some voting love from you.  My Spiced Cranberry Pumpkin Minis with Cashew Butter can win me some cash if I get the most votes by Friday night.  Easy to vote-simply go to:

www.zoyeoil.com

and go to the top of the page to “Recipe Contest” and then “Vote”

You do have to register but they are not going to send you a ton of junk emails. You can print out the recipe for yourself from the page if you want to as well—thank you so much!

And now on to part two—Between cook offs, holidays, moving to a new place, life, vacations (no, not mine), cooking trips, new hips (again, not mine) and regular everyday life it has been a very very long time since I have shot a show–last Fall to be exact!

However, we are all in luck–my first guest of the year is going to be the famous Clark Dexter!  We are making baked stuffed clams from the Hearthside days and he will be sharing the recipe with us.  I will have all of the details on my blog and here on GMG before the show airs on Cape Ann TV.

Of all of the shows I have done, whenever I am out and about and people talk to me about Inspired Cooking, the comment I hear over and over again is how much people love watching Clark, hearing his stories and seeing him make his delicious food.  I love that stuff!

Does anyone else come to mind that you might like to see on Inspired Cooking?  I love suggestions.  And they don’t have to be professional chefs.  How about someone who makes the best cookies or cake you have ever eaten?  Someone who has developed a recipe that they want to share?  A neighborhood legend who makes the best bread or  sauce ever?  I want to highlight those people on Cape Ann and beyond and I need your help to find them.

Please send me an email at laurielufkin@yahoo.com or comment on this post with your ideas.

Now that Spring has Sprung hopefully I will be posting more regularly.  Thanks again for your voting support and please, keep those ideas coming!  Laurie
