Happy Wednesday!
September 1st, 2010
I can't believe my baby turned four years old! We had a great party for a dozen of his friends at a jumpy place here with a dinosaur theme. Our friend Kate Petronis in Atlanta made him the cutest cake. She does the custom cakes in all kind of crazy shapes and themes and made a Stegosaurus that was sooo good. She uses the marzipan stuff but cuts it with marshmallow's and that way it shapes well but taste a lot better.
After pleading for a few month's he finally scored the BatCave. He is superhero crazy right now and could not have been happier so everyday I get the call to have a "Huge Battle" with the villains. He can't get enough...wonder where he gets that from?
Evan has been hard at work on the design of our labels for the BBQ sauce Bobby and I have been working on for the last few month's and it's looking good. We are going to launch with two flavors, a south Georgia sweet and spicy style and a Carolina yellow sauce. They are both delicious and we are excited to present our first Deen Bros. food products. I'll keep y'all posted on the release time and availability for anyone that loves condiments (like me!). This is good stuff.
Mom and Bobby are headed up to Indiana today to cut the ribbon on our next restaurant with Harrah's, the second "Paula Deen Buffet" opens Friday night. "
"But Jamie, why won't you be there too?", you ask. Because my friends, I am going to my favorite spot.....Athens, Georgia for the kick-off game of the University of Georgia Bulldogs football season.
Last year our good friends at Random House Publishing, who obviously do not live, breath and die by the college football season, scheduled our book tour over the entire fall. Bobby and I didn't complain. Much.
This year we are free and Jack is almost as excited as his dad to get up in the foothills to enjoy some cooler weather along with cooking outside for our tailgate parties.
Speaking of tailgate's, our latest Deen Bros magazine features some great recipes for y'all to cook up this season. We are also sporting a new look with more features and personality in this issue. It looks great and celebrates the joy of Saturday's in the fall. Y'all check it out and let me know what you think, we are doing for y'all after all.
That's it for this week, thanks for checking back in.....
Do good things-
GOOOOOOO DAWGS SIC 'EM
