On the next Kentucky Life, host Dave Shuffett travels to Berea with University of Kentucky chef Bob Perry to sample Bill Best's heirloom tomatoes, stained glass artist Bill Brumm shares his work, and husband and wife musical duo Daniel and Amy Carwile discuss performing and teaching. The program airs Saturday, Jan. 31 at 8/7 p.m. CT on KET1; Sunday, Feb. 1 at 4 :30 /3 :30 p.m. CT on KET1; and Sunday, Feb. 1 at 7/6 p.m. CT on KET2.First, it's off to Madison County where Best, a former professor at Berea College, shares a few of his more than 100 varieties of tomatoes. Best explains the difference between heirloom and hybrid tomatoes, pointing out why he prefers heirloom varieties. And, Perry uses help from Best's crop to create a mouthwatering BLT sandwich and a fresh tomato salad, both made entirely from Kentucky products.
Then, Kentucky Life travels to Wayne County, where Brumm creates original stained glass windows and designs. Brumm, a U.S. Forest Service retiree, talks about how he became interested in stained glass, describes his technique and reveals why he thinks his pieces stand out.
Finally, the Carwiles, both champion fiddlers and accomplished musicians, welcome Kentucky Life into their Fayette County home, where they discuss their musical backgrounds and the music lessons they provide to diverse student populations.
