Could you fancy now… A haiku on a pretzel…Slice of raw atop?

Shameless self promotion, shameless self indulgence, shameless self exposure of a shameless show of appetite. Pile it high, make it drip down my arm, bring on the onion, butter-griddled bread and sloppy creamed spinach. Oh yeah.

It’s always a blast to create photos for the Food Network with the well-oiled machine of  Sara Levine RosenblumRenee Comet, Audrey Weppler, Carolyn Robb Schimley and Steve Redfearn. We work hard and produce a lot of pictures. And we have a lot of fun along the way.

For me it’s a treat to work with current recipes, to see what’s going on in the TV land of cooking, and to feel as though I am contributing in some way to getting people into the kitchen.

Jeff Mauro’s sandwich recipes raised all our eyebrows, as well as the numbers on our scales. Did that slow us down for a nano-second. Um, no. In fact, I wish I’d thought of the mac and cheese sandwich. Could I offer you a little pasta with your bread. Um, yes.
