I have answers.
Diane asked about our upcoming book tour dates and locations-
Diane we are going to launch a brand new web site in a few weeks, thedeenbros.com, that will have every city and date of the tour. We are also moving the blog over there and I plan on having alot of fun at the new place. We are going to offer tons of recipes and have contest and keep y’all posted with lots of current photos.
Cindy had some questions about the book signing here at the restaurant this Friday-
Cindy will begin signing at 8am Friday morning with a end time set for 1030. I bet if folks are still hanging around we will be sure and take care of everybody. You can bring books from home or our store will have copies of anything you may need for your collection or someone you love.....guys, that’s you.
Joelle wants us in Philly-
See you there...we are set for October the 12th at Chester County Books at 7pm.
Lesa wants dirt on the “kiss” between Bobby and Kathy Griffin-
No one was more surprised than me when he laid one on her at the end of the filming. So much of reality TV is set up or encouraged but that was all Bobby on the spot and I liked to choked when he went in for the kill. We had alot of fun doing the show, she does’nt play so dirty in real life (at least around us those few days) and I thought it was a perfect end to the episode.
Teresa noticed from a Twitter photo I sent that mom is looking trim-
She has been working out everyday and while it was like pullin’ teeth for her in the beginning I think she feels better already and is looking great. Go ahead momma!
Jann is on the prowl I guess-
That’s my cousin Jay, Uncle Bubba’s son, who manages the Paula Deen store for us here in Savannah.
I hope you all have a blessed week and if you haven’t got around to it yet check us out on the twitter deal...I still don’t know how you find us but almost 3000 people have in the last week so y’all come join the party.
thanks for checking back....do good things

Hi Jamie,
Look forward to the new web site and hope that one location of the book tour is San Francisco!!!! You guys would enjoy coming out West to see all your fans!
Thanks for answering our questions, take care and have a great week.

I have been told by several people that I look like Paula Deen so if you have a look-a-like contest I would relly like to know. I have been stopped in grocery stores, department stores, convenience stores and even when I have traveled out of state. I sure take it as a compliment. Now Paula, don’t you go and lose too much weight because then I can’t keep up with you.
By Brenda McKay on July 21 2009
Hi Jamie,
Any plans on coming to Chicago for a book signing?
Would love to see you here!

Hey Jamie - I just love your blog! and I can’t wait for the new website. You always put a smile on my face every week!
Hope you and Bobby come to Louisville, KY. Saw your momma here a couple of years ago and just loved her even more. Everyone was hoping the two of you were with her but, alas, you weren’t. So we’re hoping you make it here for this book tour.
Looking forward to listening to the new podcast - will settle in tonight to listen to it all at once.
Take care,
Nancy

Hey Jamie,
Just wondering where in Chester County you will be signing books, I met you at the Paula Deen Store last week and a bunch of people in my family wanted their books signed too.

When and where when you be in Southern California for a book signing?
By Brenda Ortiz on July 21 2009
Jamie (and Bobby)- I’m assuming (and hoping) you’ll come to L.A. at some point on your book tour?!!!
By Lisa on July 21 2009
Jamie, I left a VERY important email request on the restaurant website. Please let me know if you do not receive it!!!!
Many thanks!
Susan
By Susan Stephens on July 22 2009
Hey Jamie,
I’m glad y’all are getting your own website. It sounds like it will be a lot fun. I listened to the podcast yesterday at work and everyone was hilarious. Good luck on your book tour.
Have a good week Jamie, Bobby and follow bloggers.
By Sonya on July 22 2009
Jamie, We want you and Bobby here in West Virginia again!! Hope you guys can make it here soon. Kathy Griffin is one LUCKY girl!!!
Best to the family
By robin on July 22 2009
hey jamie,
we were at the store and restraunt last tuesday, and got the privalage to meet you and bobby. i can tell that you have droped some pounds you look great. bobby was lookin good to as usual. any ways see you in october hopefully see ya
By rachel remaley on July 22 2009
You guys are the best. I love it when you guys make appearances on your mom’s show. My favorite are the family specials. Since I saw you folks on Kathy Griffin’s show I can’t get enough of Brandon. Hopefully he will be added to a future family special. He stole the show in a good way.
By Casey Williams on July 22 2009
Hey Jamie and Bobby, thanks for answering my question about who’s sitting behind Uncle Bubba. He sure doesn’t look like the picture on Get Cookin’ cast photos. Anyways, la-dees, check the family cookbook out. HE’s HOT.
Okay, enough of that. Listened to the podcast. Loved it that your cousin Don is a GATOR. About tomatos. Didn’t know you could freeze them whole. In the season here in Florida, I go to the farmer’s market and buy a bushel and stew them with fresh red and green peppers, Florida sweet onions and then freeze in Ziploc bags. Use them in the wintertime for my spaghetti, de-lish goooolash (to die for, BD).
Looking forward to your new website and any pictures you want to share with us. Love hearing Paula laugh. She seems to always have a good time.
Well, work is calling me. Have a great rest of the week. A few years ago, Paula and Michael came to Sarasota for a book signing. Maybe can you squeeze that in your schedule????
HUGS, Jann
By Jann on July 22 2009
Jamie,
Can’t wait for the new website. I listened to the Podcast at work yesterday and loved it. You should definitely invite guests on more often.
I missed the d-list show airing so I youtubed it… LMAO that was hilarious and awkward at the same time. Don’t give Mr GQ too much grief over it....
Really looking forward to the new cookbook too.
Do you know where I can get my hands on another Low Country dinnerware set? I have checked the PD Store site online and FN store online with no luck for the past 6 months. I was given a set for christmas and would like one more....
By Melanie on July 22 2009
Thanks for all the information. Ya’ll are the best. Yay for Paula working out..maybe that will motivate me! Will be glad to see a schedule of future book signings..don’t think you’ve been in VA. for signings. I think yall should hop on over to Smithfield for one. My neck of the woods.
I’ll be in Savannah/Tybee in 4 days..can’t wait!
By Alyce on July 22 2009
Are ya’ll coming to Baltimore on your book tour? If not, I’ll see you in Philly
By Amanda Cameron on July 22 2009
when are you going to be on your moms show again?
By Karen on July 22 2009
Jamie, I sure enjoy your blog its something I look forward to each week. I be looking for the new site. I have a ? though. Is there a way to allow a recipe search to look in your site and your Mom’s and the restaraunts? I’ve got some favorites and its difficult to remember sometimes which site I found it on. Thought maybe some of your computer experts might be able to do that. It would help us out a lot, especially now when there will be one more great site to find delicious recipes on. I sure enjoyed coming to Savannah last year and hope to return real soon. Thank you!
By Paula Artzer on July 22 2009
Hey Jamie and Bobby…
New website...that’s great!!! Thanks for all the great info...! See you all Friday!!!
Take Care!!!
By Marina on July 22 2009
Paula, all recipes are online at http://recipes.pauladeen.com
By Lisa the Admin on July 22 2009
Jamie, you still haven’t answered my question! How did you propose to Brooke?
Love you guys!!!
By Andrea L. on July 22 2009
Any chance of coming over here in Los Angeles?
By Jaye on July 22 2009
Sooo.....I’m in the process of filming a new reality show. Can you send Bobby up here to help me out with it, Jamie? I need an interesting way to end the show!
Just kidding, Bobby!! Actually, I “uncleverly” bring the show up because I think you deserve kudos for YOUR cleverness and for being such a good sport in playing along with Kathy’s schtick. And I would love to know if the kiss was a spur-of-the-moment idea or if you thought of it before hand with the plan of doing it if the opportunity presented itself.
Well, like everyone else, I’m looking forward to viewing the new website and to the release of your new cookbook. Any cookbook that has the word “Easy” in it attracts my attention. The fewer the ingredients and easier the process, the more likely I am to try a recipe. I hope it’s a great success for you!
BTW, Jamie. You never answered Rose’s and my question from a few weeks ago. When are we going to see the new show(s) that YOU did with your Mom?
By Kate from MA on July 22 2009

By Carolyn on July 22 2009
Hi Deen Boys, not sure if I missed this info, but do you guys and/or your mom have an official Facebook page? If so, please share
By LynnMarie on July 23 2009
Hi Jamie,
Glad to hear all is going well. Kate...he didn’t answer that did he? Ok, Jamie, back to you.
I’m looking forward to the new book as well, even more after hearing about it on the Pod Cast. Hope that you will make it back to AZ on your book tour.
Thanks for all the updates!
Rose
By Rose on July 23 2009
Hey y’all! Love the blogs and podcasts. You guys are the most REAL people of all the celebrities I’ve followed. I heard about The Lady and Sons years ago when you were at the small restaurant and I said if I ever get to Savannah, I HAVE to go there. Well it turns out my husband and I didn’t get there until June 2005 well after Paula had made the big time. So we had to stand in a loooong line at the new restaurant for lunch(but met the most interesting people)and it was so worth it! Didn’t get to see any of you but ordered a cookbook and you all signed it(bless your hearts). Can’t wait to get back up there one day. Meanwhile, keep it real. (Saw you guys on Kathy Griffin’s show-it was a hoot!!) Later.
By Linda from the Florida Panhandle on July 23 2009
Jaime - so my question is how do get a copy of the “Everything is Better with Butter” episode of your mama’s show? My big sister thought up the fried butter balls. Better yet! You should have her back on so she can make something...edible.
I’m a little sister on a mission!
By Courtney on July 24 2009
LynnMarie, the official facebook page for Paula is here:

You just “burned your lips off!” after eating donut holes.
Now sweet baby Jack is in the kitchen! What a doll baby.
You just look like you have so much fun cooking.
Will there be any new episodes soon?
Happy weekend to you. Looking forward to Tuesday and your new blog.
Love ya,

Hey Jamie, I am working my way thru The Deen Family Cookbook, well, actually, I can’t get off your Mexican Chicken Tort Casserole - it is fabulous! I usually bring supper down to my guys working at night at the gelato store, and they always ask for this dish. I’m happy to do it because it’s a snap to make. Thanks for this one, looking forward to the new book.

Hey Jamie!
Went to the beach last week and stayed @ Ocean Lakes, ROUGH water...there were quite a few people in trouble and a couple died...it was so sad to see them search for one. Good trip though.

Hey Jamie, I have all your cookbooks and your mom’s also. I love them. When are you coming back to the Bue Owl in Kimmswick, Missouri. I live south of there about 50 miles, and I would love to go when you are there?
By Kay on July 31 2009
Hi Jamie,
Your Deen Brothers BBQ Chicken is one of my favorite ways to make chicken! It’s easy and the chicken always turns out so moist. I’d love it if you made it to Austin, TX, for a book signing.
