Happy Monday morning, ladies! I want to introduce a fellow Company Girl who is about to have her own show on Oprah Winfrey's network . . . meet Kristina Kuzmic.
Kristina's getting her OWN SHOW!! How cool is that???
Here's Kristina goofing off on her set. So cute.
I first "met" Kristina some time back, here at Home Sanctuary through our weekly Company Girl Coffee link ups... and I remember thinking "this girl's got something special." Her cooking blog was fun and entertaining, and her personality sparkled through her videos. I literally laughed out loud through them. So I was not surprised when I learned that she was competing to host her own show on OWN. I just KNEW she'd get it!
And she did. Yeah, I called it. psh.
"The Ambush Cook" premieres on Saturday, December 3rd at noon (ET/PT) on OWN. (Be sure to check your local listings for your service provider's schedule.) Here is the official trailer and description of the show:
Kristina Kuzmic has been passionate about cooking her entire life. In The Ambush Cook, a half-hour reality cooking series, Kristina ambushes people from their everyday lives and takes them to her kitchen for an intervention in home cooking.
From married moms addicted to frozen foods and take-out, to single bachelors who still go to mom's house for dinner every single night, as varied as Kristina's guests may be they all have one thing in common: they fear the kitchen! Kristina takes a no-nonsense approach to tackling the many issues that cause people to give up on cooking. From Braised Short Ribs to Pistachio Crusted Tilapia, her recipes are tasty enough to satisfy the most discerning palate, yet simple enough for anyone to follow. Failure is not an option in Kristina's kitchen. She is filling the world with better cooks, one ambush at a time!
The Ambush Cook will premiere with back-to-back episodes Saturday, December 3 from 12:00 - 1:00 p.m. ET/PT.

I love the premise for this show, and if they ever run short of people who need cooking intervention, I humbly offer myself as a willing ambushee for the cause. I really need a new way to cook chicken for the fam, and Kristina promises that the show will help not only cooking 'fraidy cats, but people who might be stuck in a cooking rut, like me.
Now, Kristina and I have been emailing back and forth this past week, and she's got a couple of recipes to share with Home Sanctuary readers. I'll post one today and one on Friday as a reminder to tune in on Saturday. Sweet! You'll find it in the next post, below.
Let's give our "own" Company Girl Kristina a big boost today by showing her some love.
Follow her on twitter and like her on Facebook to help spread the word about The Ambush Cook, and then be sure and tune in on Saturday, Dec. 3rd for the premiere! You can leave her a comment here or on the OWN trailer site.
Good Luck, Kristina! Best wishes from the Company Girls!!
