“The show is always a sell out,” Coats said. “Get your tickets at Price Chopper and Wilson Appliances.” Nearly 5 million people have attended the Taste of Home Cooking School over the past 20 years.

Barna has facilitated private and online cooking classes, appeared in local and national televition commercials, and been featured in national
