In the throes of my 15 minutes of fame — hoping to stretch it a little longer. For the past few weeks I’ve been doing radio interviews, arranging book signings, etc. for my new cookbook, The American Lighthouse Cookbook. People all over the country are fascinated by lighthouses. And a lighthouse keeper was the ultimate locavore: they had to eat local because they were tied to the lighthouse 24/7. So we have a collection of seasonal menus with authentic regional dishes from 47 lighthouses on all the coasts of the United States. Yes, even Hawaii, Alaska, Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands.
Just finished proofreading our new cookbook yesterday — hooray! My mind is swimming (pun intended) with recipes for seafood, stews, pies, cakes…no wonder I’m always hungry?
