Our Very First Show – From 2003
Our first ever show, from 2003. We had Tina Bemis from Bloomin’ With The Bemis’ do a quick introduction. Her (and Ed Bemis’s) gardening show had been running for about six months in Spencer and was very popular. We used that as a springboard. The next scene, which we shot at the Big Y in Spencer, let us transition to our first cooking meeting of the minds and then on to our South Annex kitchen where Lee, Pam and Sylvia shot many, many shows. This day, they prepared:
- Peach Scones
- Orange Yogurt
- Shirred Eggs.
