We Need A Food Announcer
I was listening this morning to a sports announcer analyzing the Washington Redskins game with the Philadelphia Eagles and the UVA upset over #12 Georgia Tech. Football is fun to watch and we all have our teams that we care about. We also have family and friends that we care about and food tastes better when you are breaking bread with others. Why not have a food announcer talking about fabulous meals with new twists, easy to make, and budget friendly? What about those victories? Why not interview everyday cooks that close their ears and eyes to all the marketing ploys to eat out and spend more money and calories on less substantial food? Why not set up teams for cook-offs? Why not give prizes to best recipes? We cooks can be just as creative in finding new recipes and meals as coaches that draw offensive and defensive plays. Cooking families can help the athletes in the family have better nutrition for better performance. I would love to be the food announcer who gets to go observe and report on VCU and University of Richmond's basketball training meals. We need a food announcer to report on the victories and defeats that take place everyday around our dinner tables right here in Richmond.
