Kudo’s to Paula!!!
As the month of January dies, I have to be glad of the fact that we are leaving the obligatory health food craze that fills the country. Now don’t get me wrong, I myself and trying to get off a few dozen extra pounds, and yes, the recipes I have put up here have tried to be healthier than in the past, but my goodness does everyone have to jump on the wagon?
Take a close look at Paula’s shows from the last few weeks and you’re sure to see that the answer to that question is a resounding NO. Not every show has to be about a better, healthier way to make your food. As a matter of fact, she did an entire episode devoted to the humble potato. The bane of every dieters existence got a full 30 minutes from the glorious Ms. Deen. Even when you thought she was going to “health it up” with oven fried crispy potato wedges, she threw in a curve ball by coating the wedges in MAYONAISSE, and corn bread stuffing mix before baking them. MAYO for crying out loud!!! And then to top it off, of course extra mayo for dipping when they were finished. While I am darn happy that Paula didn’t bow to the pressure of having “starting the new year right” but all that mayo really wanted to make me ill. I can’t deal with mayo. Ick.
Kudos also, for her new placement in the Guiness Book of World Records!!!! On Paula’s Party, she shattered the old world record for dipping strawberries in chocolate. The rules were simple. The strawberries all had to be approximately the same size, covered at least half way with the chocolate, and she could only use one hand. Paula dipped an impressive 45 strawberries in only 60 seconds.
