Too Many Cooks! will stop producing new shows, for now, after Nov. 26. We will be regrouping, working on internet distribution of the program, looking for grants, seeking a major underwriter for internet distribution, and more.
We still have the Indiana Humanities Council in place as a 501 c 3 to receive individual donations for internet expansion, and for grants. If you would like to make a donation in '08 for your taxes, write a check to "IHC for the benefit of Too Many Cooks". The check may be mailed to: Indiana Humanities Council, 1500 N. Delaware St., Indianapolis, IN 46202 Please know that our going off the air for now is the decision of Too Many Cooks! personnel and not that of WICR, the station where we produce our program.
We are open to any and all suggestions.

"Too Many Cooks is a program I relish and appreciate as it is distinctively the only radio food forum for the Indianapolis area that is both informative and entertaining. We are most fortunate to have such a fine program for our community"
