Most morning I'm up an at work. Hearing time to make the donuts from my friends at Dunkin' Well today I said its to myself, "time to find the mushrooms". A little ride to Lake Jean State Park/ Game Lands 57 area and look what I harvested. 14 Sheepheads a good start to the season.

I can't believe I did it again! I went and donated platelets and plasma this morning. There is a nationwide shortage so I try to do my part by filling the demand for blood, platelets and plasma. One of my rewards is when I get the notice from American Red Cross where my donation went. Here is my donation from last month.

After first ensuring local needs were met, your donation on August 11, 2024 was sent to Virtua Voorhees Hospital in Voorhees, NJ; WVU Hospital in Morgantown, WV and Lynchburg General Hospital in Lynchburg, VA to help patients in need. YOUR DONATION MADE ITS WAY TO SAVE LIVES.

I am asking you to make an appointment to donate. (redcrossblood.org) The only thing it cost is your time, and you too will be rewarded hearing how your donation SAVED LIVES. American Red Cross Blood Donors American Red Cross Platelet Donors Group American Red Cross Greater Pennsylvania

The Quarter-Final phase of the competition has ended and unfortunately I will not be moving on to the Semi-Final phase. It was so much fun being part of this competition with over 100000 chefs competing. I made it to the final 1800 and that only happened because of YOU! Daily voting was the key to my success and many of you also purchased votes which benefit The James Beard Foundation. I also receive votes from other chefs supporting my journey having their friends voting for me. I want to THANK EVERYONE including my family, friends and individuals I didn't even know from the bottom of my heart for your support. And again it was a journey that I will always cherish.
