I'm in the process of designing a pin-up (40's style) of a chefly young lady with a plate of sushi in one hand, and a slice of maki in the other, along with all of the standard accoutrement of a pin up. I already have a toqued skull biting my first chef knife tatted on my other arm, in military style. Soon I will add the words 'Death From Within' in some form with that one. I will try to post up pics when they are complete!

New York Times had Donut Pudding printed a few weeks ago. Made it twice and pased it around to friends. Made more raspberry jelly for the second batch and doubled the # of donuts for a really large pan. If you decide to make some kind of donut thing, don't use Dunkin Donuts. They don't have enough jelly in them unless you are driving and eating a donut with the other hand. You can order big ones from the Stop & Shop. Frozen dough, sure but they hold a lot of jelly and when you add cream, eggs and sugar. Yum.

Where's the LOVE? Paula didn't make up these recipes they have been around for a while, she is a southern cook who makes southern dishes. Some southern dishes are loaded with butter and lard, that's traditional southern like it or not. It is what it is.

Paula Deen is beyond ridiculous. Fame and fortune have turned her into a self absorbed icon. Her jokes about butter, fat, and everything else she uses in her 'so so" recipes are not funny. She serves to reinforce the notion that southern women are backward, silly and syrupy sweet. Those of us who have fought to overcome that perception are not happy.

Paula, all you do is give overweight, unhealthy fans permission to continue down their destructive path. That is truly not at all comical. At least make an attempt to offer suggestions for healthy changes in your recipes. Maybe your just tell your audience, "be like me smoke, don't exercise, eat unhealthy and see where that gets you". The jokes that you make are truly a "thumb your nose" gesture to your fans and make your "love and best dishes" sign-off totally disingenuous.

Perhaps Paula has not noticed that we have a health crisis in our nation that is even affecting kids. Thanks Paula for making sure we have your permission to add another stick of butter to our already clogged arteries.

Food network should rein her in.

Can you believe that earlier this year I had the USDA Prime stamp tattooed on my butt??? I was so shocked to find this website that mentioned that!!! I did the lettering in black because white wouldn't have shown up as well, but it looks great. I get alot of comments on it (when I choose to show it to certain ppl !! not just anyone gets to see it...unless I've had a few too many crown and cokes. I have other tats, but none are as much of a conversation piece as this one. I have some good pics, but I don't see where I can attach them here. oh well.

A burger with cheese and bacon on Krispy Kreme doughnuts was sold at the minor league Gateway Grizzlies baseball concession stand just outside of St. Louis in 2006. So give credit.....or barbs.....where due.....

Paula is truly that vivacious and flirtatious all of the time, not just for the cameras. The accent you hear is genuine. Lots of people in the South sound just like her.

BEST. BLOG. SERIES. EVER.

You know people make fun of that type of cooking...like it's s000000 fattening , but the reality is, don't eat th whole dish! I think if you have balance you can pretty much eat and enjoy everything....(that's wy I run!!!) ..don't focus so much on Paula, focus on the many drive thrus....god knows what your eating or better yet what crawls in there and you eat it anyway!!!!!!!!!That is the stuff that really kills you! At least her food is made fresh, peole love it or she wouldn't be the success she is! Go Paula...!!!!!!!!!!!

there is a limit to wasting food. this isnt about being thrifty. Thrifty would havebeen maybe a banana bread pudding, and maybe simple grilled ham on the side, leave out the chips completely. better yet a grilled ham sandwich. thei is how to put together the nastiest thing possible and make people actuallly believe it might not be totaly revolting. I dont think much of Paula Deen as a cook, but as a saleswoman she is tops.

And after reading the other entries about her trying to kill us, she's a horrible, horrible woman! I shall have to tell my mother at once to stop watching her show and beg her NOT to cook these recipes. She's trying to kill my mother, too.

Come on fellow foodies, this is "Paula Deen is trying to kill you" right? Welllllllll that is her mission, to kill us all. This is only the beginning of whats to come fellow foodies stay tuned, she will concur up something more cheesier, fattier, buttery, gooier, vile and discusting (ier), in no time at all. Be patient "Y'all".

Its funny reading all these comments especially the ANTI-Paula Deen's throughout these threads. Makes me wonder if they are so "disgusted" by Paula. Why in the sam hill are they watching it? Let alone posting that she's killing us. If your that worried that watching her show will make you put on the weight. Then get off your butt and go for a walk or stay in your recliner eating your chips while drinking your soda and flip the T.V. to another station. Besides it isn't Paula Dean's Everyday Foods, It's Paula's Party. I haven't ever been to any parties that don't have more than one sinful appetizer or dish. Even then no one, well almost no one is gonna be sitting at any party devouring all of the sinful goodies at once. Though there is always someone that doesn't know what moderation is, most have common sense .Also, as many said they had altered her recipes to suit they're family. So lay off her she's just havin' a party. I'll step off my soap box now... lol

mmmmm...Looks good. I would eat it. (and no, I am NOT fat). I wish poeple would stop feeling guilty or bad about one of the pleasures in life...FOOD! Its not what I would eat every day, but maybe once in awhile, just for the fun of it. I imagine it would be a lot like McGriddles...mmmm. McGriddle. I think I will have one tomorrow, I haven't had one in 8 or 9 months or so...
