Think Pink!

Today was probably a little ( ok a lot) more stressful then it should have been. I had trouble getting a restaurant to talk to me because it was right at the lunch time rush. I finally ended up just going to Asti and hoping that someone would have time to talk to me. A detour and some city driving stressed me out even more, oh and the car I was driving was on E, but Tyler did a really good job calming me down and I ended up with good sound and an angle on the story I didn't expect. The newscast went really well, I liked the variety of stories that we had.
One thing that didn't make it into the story was the woman I talked to, Jessica Turmino, is also the wife of the owner and it's a family run restaurant. She also gave me some information about the cannoli, the types of cheeses used in the filling and that the shell is from New York City. She said they picked this for their dessert for the fundraiser because it was both Italian and homemade. One last thing came from the hostess I interviewed, Faye Green, she ran the Avon Breast Cancer Marathon in New York City this past year. It just shows how committed everyone at the restaurant is to supporting Breast Cancer research and awareness.
