29th Annual Kentucky Book Fair

I have exciting news! I have been selected for the second year to participate in the Kentucky State Book Fair. I will do a book signing of the just released “Country Goodness Recipes of Tennessee Celebrities.”

My cookbook “Favorite Recipes of Kentucky Celebrities” will also be available, if you did not get a signed copy last year. It was 8th in overall sales from a selection of 200 authors and 523 books at last year’s book fair.

Here is your chance to get great gifts for family, friends, and yourself.

About the book fair:

The Book Fair, November 13th, opens at 9:00 a.m. to the public and continues until 4:00 p.m. There will be over 200 authors from across Kentucky. The books with authors are in Rows based on subject. The cookbooks and books on bourbon or with ties to bourbon will be to the extreme right in ROW 10 and ROW 3. As of now, my cookbooks are in the back area in ROW 3, which is next to the children’s books. JUST GO RIGHT AND KEEP WALKING! YOU WILL FIND US! :-)

About the cookbook:
There are recipes for Elvis, Trace Adkins, authors Sam Pickering and Tom Schulman (of Dead Poet’s Society fame), Paypal Founder David O. Sacks, and Lovelace CafĂ© (and no they did not send their biscuit recipe.)

COME CHECK IT OUT!

COUNTRY GOODNESS RECIPES OF TENNESSEE CELEBRITIES


The Tennessee cookbooks just
arrived from the publisher!

What does Elvis, Miley Cyrus, Trace Adkins, author Sam Pickering, and Pres Andrew Jackson have in common? They all have a favorite recipe in the Tennessee Cookbook:
“Country Goodness Recipes of Tennessee Celebrities."

The cookbook has over 300 recipes from local and national personalities, highly visible Tennessee businesses, artist, writers, athletes, sportsmen, actors, musicians, bed and breakfasts, restaurants, notable events and places. In addition, there are brief notes with each recipe on the contributor.

My goal is to use the cookbook as a fundraiser for non-profit and charitable organizations. Fifty percent of any copies sold will be given to charities or non-profit organizations that wish to use it as a fundraiser. The other fifty percent is to cover my cost. I feel God has blessed me and this is a way I can give back to the community.

In addition to being interesting to read and a charitable fundraiser, the cookbook is also a great way to publicize and promote Tennessee tourism, business, industry, historic sites, and most of all the wonderful people who were born, lived, or have ties to Tennessee.

If you would like to purchase a cookbook or to use the cookbook as a fundraiser contact me:

ELVIS PRESLEY RECIPE




TENNESSEE CELEBRITY

COOKBOOK UPDATE.

We now have over 230 recipes for the Tennessee Celebrity Cookbook.

I just received a recipe from John Schorr, President of Sun Studios Memphis. He sent Elvis’s Fried Banana Pie.

Sun Studios located on Beale Street is the legendary recording studio, and birthplace of rock and roll, widely known for recording Elvis Presley, Jerry Lee Lewis, Carl Perkins, and Johnny Cash.

We also have received recipes with other Elvis ties! The Banana Pudding recipe the cook at Graceland always kept fresh in the refrigrator. This came from the folks at Graceland.

The Jordanaires were one and the same with Elvis for years. Ray Walker, their fabulous bass singer sent his wife's recipe for Corn Chowder. He said he had been married to Marilyn for 55 years and she and the corn chowder got better every year. I loved that!

Gospel Music was a big part of Elvis’s life. The Stamps Quartet sang with Elvis in all of his gospel recordings. The original lead singer Ed Enoch has graciously agreed to send us a recipe.

This is so exciting! I believe all these wonderful people sent recipes as they knew the cookbook is to be used as a fundraiser for various non-profit organizations all across Tennessee. We have already had several organizations that have sold the Kentucky Cookbook that want to sell the Tennessee one as well.

I think God is constantly creating opportunities for the Cookbook and fun activities for me.

THE TENNESSEE COOKBOOK

WILL BE AVAILABLE

NOVEMBER 1, 2010!
