Beloved Food Network personality, restaurateur, and author
Paula Deen loves a party, and in her latest book,
Paula Deen Celebrates!, Paula shares with fans old
and new how she celebrates a year's worth of holidays and
special occasions. Now anyone can share in the down-home
celebrations Paula, her husband, Michael, their kids, and
extended family enjoy at their beautiful home in Savannah,
Georgia.
What better way to start off the New Year than with a New
Year's Eve Brunch with friends -- at midnight! This
colorful celebration includes Crab and Spinach Casserole
and Baked Tomatoes, and finishes with a quintessentially
southern Hummingbird Cake and Irish Coffee. Welcome St.
Patrick's Day, Savannah style, with Lamb Stew and Green
Grits Pie. The centerpiece of an Easter dinner is a Peanut
Butter-Glazed Ham, accompanied by Spinach-Swiss Casserole,
Squash Boats, and flaky Butterhorns, with a bonus recipe
for Ham Salad that makes eating leftovers a treat. Looking
for a reason to party, south-of-the-border style? Try
Paula's Cinco de Mayo Fiesta menu, with Macho Nachos and a
cool and creamy Margarita Mousse. Paula honors the memory
of her mother, and all the other women who have blessed her
life, with a Mother's Day Tea of dainty sandwiches and
irresistible cookies served on her best china, and fathers
get their due with a Father's Day Boating Picnic. The
Fourth of July is the perfect occasion for an Outdoor Grill
Party and Low-Country Boil, and if what you want is a quiet
evening at home, pop a movie in the DVD player and chow
down on your choice of Paula's savory and sweet pizzas.
Gather the family to watch some football and savor Jamie's
Cheeseburger Pies, and give family and friends the gift of
a sweet treat at the holidays with Paula's Icebox Fruitcake
or Peppermint Bark. Her Christmas feast starts with
Cranberry Holiday Brie and stars an impressive Standing Rib
Roast, with Twice-Baked Potato Casserole. The show-stopping
dessert is Paula's butter-laden Coconut Pound Cake glazed
with coconut syrup and covered with icing and toasted
coconut!
Paula brings you into her home, her kitchen, and her heart
with family stories and photographs. This time, her
husband, Michael, sons Jamie and Bobby, and brother, Bubba,
chime in to share their memories, too. Decorating and
serving ideas will inspire you to use what you have to
carry through a theme to make the most informal meal
special. And Paula shares her most private thoughts in a
special feature -- Paula's Pearls of Wisdom -- which you'll
find with each menu.
Paula Deen Celebrates! is Paula at her very southern
best. Join her in making and sharing her best dishes for
the best times of your life.
