I love her too. She's a very special sweet lady. She has a wonderful sense of humor and she makes some dishes that look sooooooooooooo good.

I think I have looked at it every year & thought "I am NOT spending 9 bucks on a magazine!" But this year we were on our way home from Lake Cumberland (5 hour drive) & I was desperate for SOMETHING to make the ride go fast, so I bought it. Now I am going to have to buy it every year! Lol! I thought it was very good. I loved reading about the little country stores that sell homemade jams, or breads, etc. I want to work at one of those places!!! :lol:

Holiday - I ended up buying this magazine on Wednesday and I have kept it in my tote all week to read! It's a great buy. I recommend everyone pick it up...

I am definitely going to make some of the cookies doughs and freeze them for baking in December - heavenly sugar cookies, orange butter cookies, maraschino cherry squares, and the lemon cookies all have doughs that are freezeable! :)

I am going to try to make the jumbo chocolate filled cupcakes this weekend. So yummy looking!

And I am trying to decide which of the "gifts to make" to do for my friends and family this holiday.

[Courtney]

Sounds like I am going to have to invest in a copy of this recipe haven!

[Holiday]

I don't think you will regret it!!! It's a good one! :-D

[Maureen]

Ummm, question...........

Who's Paula Deen??? She sounds like a Martha Stewart type person

[Seawaters]

Why, Maureen, bless your heart. She is one quintessential Southern lady! Google her and you will find LOTS of info!

She's a "good ol" southern cook who never skimps on the butter!!! :-D

[snowytree]

I made her recipe for gooey butter cake about a year ago, and it was so good! I look forward to her holiday shows. She always has very good recipes and they are not to elaborate either, which I like:)

[Mumof2]

She reminds me of my MIL.

[marekkane]

Okay, I googled. And....deep fried butter balls?! My heart just went "hrrrrrrrgh" reading that page.

I don't think I could survive Southern cooking. :/

[Vikki1989]

Yeah the only place I seen it was yesterday while shopping at Target, and it was AFTER I had made my purchases :-? I will have to go back I guess.
I loves me some Target! LOL

It sure is worth every penny -
Most of my Christmas baking is coming from this magazine.

Love Paula Deen - I try to be just like her:hello:......right;
Well, my name is Paula
I brought that magazine in to my hairdresser and she layered my hair like hers - it's really the best cut I've hadcheesy
I bake with butter as often as I can - HAH!

[Silverbells]

You are not alone I absolutly LOVE her!:dance:

[Twinkle]

My daughter gave me a Christmas subscription last year to her magazine. She does put out a very colorful and high quality magazine. My only complaint with Paula is I cannot make her recipes because of all the sugar and butter. Some I have improvised making them a little less fattening. I use to watch Paula's Party every Friday night but haven't seen this on anymore. Anyone know why? The last show I saw was her with Michelle Obama in the kitchen with her. I didn't like her getting into a political adjenda before the elections and wrote her a letter asking if she was bringing on Sarah or Cindy McCain to balance it all out. Never heard back. I have backed off Paula ever since. But Paula is a true southern gal and always love her down to earth personality. Who could not love Paula Deen.
