This woman can get on my last nerve sometimes, probably because she reminds me of too many people I knew in Danville, but this is a good way to start prepping for the Thanksgiving Feast!
And she is really amusing in this interview. Fast on her feet. I may be starting to like her, after all..
Thanksgiving is about one thing and one thing only, and that’s gluttony. So who better to offer some last-minute cooking tips than the Queen of Butter, the Dame of Deep Fried, the High Priestess of Cardiovascular Disease. I’m talking about Paula Deen, the Emmy-winning Food Network host, author, and, come New Year’s Day, Grand Marshal of the Rose Parade in Pasadena.
If you’ve ever seen the 63-year-old Southern icon in action, you know that even watching her cook is enough to raise your cholesterol. She goes through sticks of butter like some people use breath mints. Her best-selling cookbook, Paula Deen’s Kitchen Classics, was voted one of the “unhealthiest” books of the decade by the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine. If that doesn’t sound like the true spirit of Thanksgiving, you’ve probably been doing it wrong.
