I attended the Metro Cooking show in Norfolk, Va back in September of 08' and had lunch with Paula Deen and her husband Michael, what a time we had! I Loved every minute of it! I have a picture of the three of us on my profile! It is the treasure of my life besides my family of course! Can't wait to see them again in Washington! (seen on Facebook)
This will be the third year my daughter and I will have attended. We have seen Paula Deen, Bobby Flay and this year it will be Guy Fieri. We love these shows.
