   Quote of the Day "I hope to inspire others to buy fresh local food and to cook it in ways that are even better than going out to a restaurant. To inspire people to spend more time feeding themselves quality, nutritious food instead of the lure of expensive over-packaged convenience foods.  In your car, which can be rebuilt with numerous replaceable parts, would you try to run it with dirty kerosene? No. So why do we put junk in our system when we have no hope of replacing those parts we might ruin by doing so?  How we eat has an impact on our world – it affects equality, poverty, farming practices, the health of the soil, the purity of the water and air – and of course your own personal well being ." ~ Dave Brummet ~~~   Discover Our Books on Amazon :  https://amazon.com/author/lillianbrummet  Find us online via these landing pages:  https://taplink.cc/brummet  https://linktr.ee/LillianBrummet ~~~

  Media Appearance Very cool to see our interview has been published on Epic Book Reviews !  "Writing is a challenge – you have to become more than an entrepreneur… you have to self-market, you have to write things that won’t be published for years and so you are constantly sending out queries, dealing with follow-ups, networking, marketing, promoting, and writing. Keeping records of your activities, media appearances and conversations with members of the media are also a part of this career. It can be a chore, but it can also be a great source of joy and bring a sense of accomplishment, a sense of leaving a positive legacy behind."  Find the full interview  HERE :  https://epicreviewclub.wordpress.com/2022/09/12/lilian-brummet-and-dave   ~~~   Discover Our Books on Amazon :  https://amazon.com/author/lillianbrummet  Find us online via these landing pages:  https://taplink.cc/brummet  https://linktr.ee/LillianBrummet ~~~...
