some PBS station's web sites allow you to see the show after they broadcast it, and I think  KLRU is one of them.

Thanks for the heads-up. I just reserved DVDs of seasons one and two from our local library. Season three premieres here on September 12.

"There is no sincerer love than the love of food."  -George Bernard Shaw, Man and Superman, Act 1

 

"Imagine all the food you have eaten in your life and consider that you are simply some of that food, rearranged."  -Max Tegmark, physicist

 

Gene Weingarten, writing in the Washington Post about online news stories and the accompanying readers' comments: "I basically like 'comments,' though they can seem a little jarring: spit-flecked rants that are appended to a product that at least tries for a measure of objectivity and dignity. It's as though when you order a sirloin steak, it comes with a side of maggots."

 

Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power.  -Robert G. Ingersoll, lawyer and orator

 

Patriotism is often an arbitrary veneration of real estate above principles. -George Jean Nathan, author and editor

 

A sense of humor is a measurement of the extent to which you realize that we are trapped in a world almost totally devoid of reason. Laughter is how we express the anxiety we feel at this knowledge.

-Dave Barry, humorist

I love this series too - but I just checked and I guess I just missed the 1st of the series an hour or so ago and the next 3 are airing at 3 AM (i.e. well in the middle of the night)! Sigh.

Hello everyone!!!

 

My wife and I are enjoying very much the show...  We cancelled cable and satellite some time ago and are having fun finding entertainment from sources we haven't generally used in the past.

 

However, we are puzzled by one person's presence on the show.  Does anybody know whom the blonde lady is on the PEACHY episode sitting with VIV's husband and the kids on the couch while they watched VIV on the TODAY SHOW?

 

Originally, I thought she was a sister, or cousin, or something.  But, Mrs. Padres Fan has assured me she is not a relative.  Anybody out there find her presence, and body language as the family watched the TODAY SHOW curious?

I noticed that woman too and I think she was also in a recently aired episide about figs. Given the fact that Vivian Howard works and travels a lot (her husband as well) and I've not heard anything about family taking care if her children....... I assumed she's most likely a nanny. That would make sense.

today in my area they are showing Episode 307  Casserole

 

what a wonderful and insightful show.

 

this book is featured as an 'eat in book signing ;

 

http://www.amazon.com/The-Southern-Living-Community-Cookbook/dp/0848743547

 
 
I do have a couple of casserole books.
 
the author of the book has unusual insight :
 
she discusses canned soup.  mentions that casseroles from out past have taste expectations.
 
"  the goal of a casserole is to feed the hungry and the heart broken

 

left overs ?  nope 

 

if you dont put something good in the dish, you are not going to get any thing good out of the dish

 

nothing magic is going to happen when your not looking."

 

if you can , please see this show.  its refreshing.

I went to Chef and The Farmer in Jan 2015, it was delicious. I was on the end of a terrible flu-like illness but I dragged myself there because we made our reservation a couple months in advance. We did not see Vivian or her husband - they weren't around but we did see some of the other cast of characters from the show hard at work in the kitchen.
