Nipper with Tracey Johnson!
Nipper and his very own "Mama Rose"... ;)It really happened! Nipper made his television debut on FOX19's new morning program, "FOX19 Morning News Extra" on Tuesday, December 21st, and as dedicated "stage-parents," Tom and I couldn't be prouder. That little black and barely white fuzzy faced guy did his Mommy and Daddy proud, chowing down on those dog biscuits like nobody's business!
I demonstrated how to bake "Nipper's Favorite Chicken Liver Dog Cookies" along with the help of Tracey Johnson, the new co-anchor. (For all those who haven't met her yet, she's a delight!)
Doing cooking demonstrations is fraught with possible catastrophes. I've done dozens, yet once forgot the eggs for a demo at a library. It made it kind of difficult to make "Birdie Bread Waffles" as my big finish. *Sigh!* All those successful presentations and that is the only one I still think of first.
The hardest part is the prep-work, choosing a recipe, making lists, measuring everything out and putting it in cups and ramekens so all you have to do is dump everything into bowls, etc. Then, you have to make a finished product so you can show the audience how the dish is supposed to look. If this is for a morning news program and you want to serve something hot so the interviewers and crew can taste-test, this might mean getting up at 3 a.m. or even staying up all night so that everything is timed out perfectly. Thank goodness "Nipper's Favorite Chicken Liver Dog Cookies" can be made the night or even days before and don't have to be served warm!
Well, enough rambling... Needless to say, the whole thing went off without a hitch and Nipper's extended fan club gave him rave reviews. His eating technique was impeccable and his timing...awesome!
That's our boy!!!!!
