Former Food Network Host Amy Finley on Blog Talk Radio’s World of Ink Network show: The Writing Mama –April 14, 2011


Blog Talk Radio’s World of Ink Network Show: The Writing Mama with hosts VS Grenier and Marsha Casper Cook will be chatting with former Food Network Host Amy Finley about her most recent book, HOW TO EAT A SMALL COUNTRY: A Family’s Pursuit of Happiness, One Meal at a Time.

A professionally trained cook turned devoted stay-at-home mom, Amy Finley decided on a whim to send in an audition tape for season three of The Next Food Network Star, and the impossible happened: she won her own cooking show on national television.

Amy Finley will be sharing her triumphant and endearing tale of family, food, France, and forgiveness. This is going to be one fun show and full of information from working on a TV show to being a stay-at-home-mom.

The show will air live, April 14, 2011 at 2pm PST- 3pm MST- 4pm CST- 5pm EST.

The way you love, the way you express, the way you tell a story, the way you write. The world will know of and witness only one you . The totality of you -- talents, nuances, thought proc...
