Hmmm, or maybe not. But we were interviewed on West Virginia Public Radio. Emily Corio, WV Public Broadcasting's Morgantown correspondent, ventured down to the farm last week for an on-site interview with Dan and me. She had noticed my participation on this blog and realized that I lived nearby (at least by West Virginia standards, where a 90-minute drive is considered "nearby").

Ms. Corio arrived, audio recorder and microphone in hand, on Thursday morning to interview us about eating locally and about our "off-the-grid lifestyle." Dan and I had been giggling about the potential hilarity of this visit for the past week, imagining ourselves pointing to various items and deadpanning lines like, "Uhh, this is my zucchini. This is my woodstove. These are my eggplants. This is my puppy dog."

It went better than we had imagined, albeit with ample ammunition for on-air wackiness, at least from Ms. Corio's interview-editing viewpoint. Luckily for us, she's a professional. And I did ask her specifically to "make us sound cool." A Sisyphean task? Perhaps, but she did her level best. You can check out a summary of the story and listen to the audio segment here.

Thanks, WV Public Broadcasting, for making us faaaaamous! Now you'll have to excuse me while I put on dark glasses and run to the limo; the paparazzi are pounding at the door.
