Meet Amanda
This is Amanda Hastings-Phillips, an actress in LA who also happens to be my daughter's bff and her doubles partner in college. More important for our purposes, she's an excellent cook. (She just finished making a friend's wedding cakes for 200 guests.)
Amanda has kindly agreed to do a video demonstration for my blog for Sugar Week, which as you know starts August 19. The working title is How to Make a Black Bottom Pie, Arguably the Greatest Dessert of All Time. This is a recipe I developed from one in Marjorie Kinnan Rawling's great Cross Creek Cookery. I know you won't want to miss it.
I will, of course, also include the recipe on my blog.

It's obvious she doesn't eat her own cooking.
That's not true. You have the evidence before your own eyes at the end of the video. :-)
