Recipes From Maine's TV host, Executive Sports Editor, and Outdoor Columnist Bud Leavitt found in 'Ayuh, Another Downeast Cookbook' by Virginia Wright |Maine Author

 As a cookbook author and restaurant reviewer, I photograph everything I cook and eat. I presently have 2.7 million+ views and growing daily, of my 350 photographs on Google Maps. Check out my cookbook, 'Ayuh, Another Downeast Cookbook.' There are many wild game and seafood recipes, along with recipes from Maine Guides, Lobstermen, and a couple of recipes from Bud Leavitt. Bud was a Maine executive sports editor and an outdoor columnist that worked for Bangor Daily News back in the day. Bud also hosted a fishing and hunting television show, called The Bud Leavitt Show. He took me under his wing a tad, trying to publicize the cookbook I had written. I will always remember his generosity... as he not only gave me two recipes for my cookbook, but he also wrote an article about me and 'Ayuh, Another Downeast Cookbook' in the Bangor Daily News. He also handed off my manuscript to another writer who put one of the recipes in the newspaper from my cookbook, it was a surprise to me as I didn't know he had done it. I had a great curiosity as to how it ended up in the newspaper. So, I wrote the writer and she told me that Bud had given her my manuscript. The cookbook did not get published until thirty-five years later--still, I felt Bud smiling down on me! R.I.P. Bud Leavitt!
