Katie Edwards Dishes 'Political Food for Thought' -- and Shrimp-Crab Cakes

If you missed "Live with Lori, Political Food for Thought" Wednesday morning, then you missed Rep. Katie Edwards, D-Plantation, aboard Royal Carribean's Allure of the Seas preparing shrimp-crab cake with a creamy remoulade sauce -- all the while talking politics with host Lori Halbert.

Edwards covered a variety of topics in the half-hour program -- duck hunting, her law clients, the need for economic development in rural communities in the middle of the state, equipping elementary schools with mental health counselors, Common Core, medical marijuana, and especially revisiting the state's approach to criminal sentencing reform to end minimum mandatory sentencing.

The entire show with Katie Edwards is available by clicking here.

Now in its fifth season, the all-Florida show is a cross between a CNN news segment and something from the Food Channel. Each week Halbert "serves up a little 'Political Food for Thought,'" interviewing politicians from across the state while teaching them how to prepare a specialty meal.

On previous shows 'Live with Lori' has featured Senate President Don Gaetz, Congressman Bill Posey, Chief Financial Officer Jeff Atwater, and Democratic National Committee Chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz.

It airs at 7:30 a.m. Wednesdays on Sun Sports.
