Jeff Mauro: ...how important family gatherings are

Nobody told me just how much we would miss getting together with friends and relatives, cooking and enjoying food, sharing good times and great memories. We all learned that the hard way with the pandemic and its necessary restrictions on gathering with those outside of our immediate household. Now that more people are vaccinated and restrictions are easing, a lot of us are looking forward to gathering once again with those we love to share a meal and some laughter as well.  To help us get in the mood for that, we welcome our guest on this episode, Jeff Mauro, the winner of season 7 of Food Network Star, the host of Sandwich King, the co-host of the Emmy-nominated show, The Kitchen, and the author of the new book, 'Come On Over: 111 Fantastic Recipes for the Family That Cooks, Eats and Laughs Together'. ****** Thanks to our sponsor of this episode! --> The Grey Muzzle Organization: The Grey Muzzle Organization is in pursuit of a world where every senior dog dies alone and afraid by providing funding and resources to animal shelters and rescue organizations.
