It's PAULA DEEN


Mom, Dad, Luke, and I all headed to Dallas this past Saturday morning to see Paula Deen. I think every interstate in Dallas was under construction but Dad got us there safely. Dad and Luke dropped us off at the Music Hall. I don't think I have ever seen more crazy women. There were some that had boas on and homemade Paula T-shirts...one lady even had a styrofoam stick of butter....but they wouldn't let her bring that in, THANK GOD!!!

Paula was wonderful. She is very down to earth and so southern. She visited with the audience for a good half hour. She even had an argument with a lady up by us about how to pronounce the word pecan....I was thinking...who cares....and....YOU ARE ARGUING WITH PAULA DEEN of all people!!!!! Women gave her the funkiest stuff....homemade t-shirts, aprons, etc....what would you do with all of it?? Well we were on our toes hoping she brought someone with her...and she did! Bobby and Michael!!! Mom and I were hoping for Jamie but we had to settle I guess...LOL!!!

She didn't cook hardly at all, but she did make her fried pork chops that are to die for! She's down to earth, friendly, and even burped on stage ya'll! Mom and I had the best time and I'm so glad I got to share this with her. We even had time this weekend for scrapbook and technology stores! What a fun time! Thanks Mom and Dad!!!

Wasn't it just a great time we had Mel!!!! Paula is just what she seems on tv...a good ol' southern gal! The lady hollering from the balcony about the pronunciation of "pecan" made me want to go and snatch her bald! What nerve some morons have! You and I had the best time didn't we...and our "boyfriends" had fun too though I'm not sure where they went! Who cares! WE GOT TO SEE PAULA AND MICHAEL AND BOBBY!!!!!!

OH HOW FUN!! She looks like she was very entertaining. I bet she captivated the crowd. You really got some great pictures. Good scrapbooking ones. :) Guess she has a pretty serious fan base. Shirts, sticks of butter etc... HA
Fun, Fun.
