They sent me the final paperwork. I'm sure something could go wrong so I wouldn't make the show (Sweet Genius) so I'm NOT talking about it on my Twitter, but I had to tell someone.

Being a respected foodie in the food world...like I can't even tell you what it means to me. It's my dream!

Thank you for Andy for always believing in me and supporting me!

HAHAHA Yes! I know that's how people prepare for Chopped [another Food Network show that involves random mandatory ingredients].
Either way, you gotta let us know when it airs! :)

July 13th the Truck will be at Love Park from 11am - 3pm. The 18th, I do not believe she will be out.

We are only going to be open on Friday's at Love Park for most of July (sans 7/6/12 as we are going away), so we can focus on opening the store.

So... Kate had a follow up interview with the producers yesterday afternoon. They have not made any final decisions, but the lady said it is looking very good. Here are some quotes Kate told me about her phone call, but in my words, because I do not remember the quote verbatim.

Everyone here at the Food Network love you.
Everyone has a good story but your story is SOOOOO GOOOD!
What the producers liked most about her video she shot when she came up to NY was, Kate's heart was always in the right place but her dark sense of humor came through.
They liked that she used the word "mouth-gasm".


Kate described the phone call with the producer like a very good first date.

...

Again, nothing has been confirmed, but it is looking good. Filming will probably be in the end of July.

The bad part If chosen, will be not being allowed to speak of what happens, until it airs. :gah:
