Are you a Get 'Em Girl???


Well I am .... First I have to say I am so proud of you ladies. Shakara, Jeniece, and Joan are the epitome of Renaissance Black Women. I have went to many events they have catered (wink wink...lol) and every time make an appoint to crash the kitchen so I can taste test the entire time...lol! They released a cook book last year and it did so well independently that they got a deal with Simon & Schuster who recently re-released the book. If you don't have it go pick it up. Here is a little background:

They just launched a lifestyle website. Not only do you get new recipes that aren't in the book, but you get the low down on new topics, entertainment, relationship issues, etc. You can check it out by going to www.getemgirls.com
I am going to be writing for them over there every once in a while. I will keep you posted.
This year has been so good to them and they deserve every bit of it. Having an in store in Macy's and last week they were on the today show

Again congrats ladies... love you much... I need that monkey bread in my life...lol... and I have the book but don't feel like making it myself so holla at me... ya'll know ya'll right up the block ya'll need to just invite me over every time ya'll cook or are about to cater something so I can come over and taste it first to make sure everything is all good...lol!

These are my girls...LOVE THEM!!!! I've been able to meet them a few time and they are so cool! Shakara and I have spoken on more than one occasion.

SERIOUSLY, pick up this book...soooo tasty! Oh and I heard they're going to possibly be making a HUGE appearance within the next few months.

Everytime I try to cook something it comes out...bad. And it isn't because I think I can't cook(you know if you think you cant do it, then you cant).

Maybe I'll scoop this book up.....

I will have to cop that... I love to see sistas living a dream and doing big things! truly inspirational...

im back... wanted to let you see my response.

well to put things in order... if we were to line my team with eb's team... i would be blowing her out of the water... we just havent been lined up, but yes, the scores week by week.

me 73, eb 56
me 95, eb 59
me 74, eb 67

so... looking at numbers... that should put things in perspective.

:)

girl I didn't know you wanted to come to BK to eat. Next big dinner party, you are on the list.

Anonymous September 28, 2008 at 12:52 PM

I'm going to have to check that book out. I love trying new recipes but, nothing that takes too long. I don't have time for stuff that takes over an hour.

Eb the Celeb September 28, 2008 at 2:47 PM

@ -1- YES U R A Get em Girl... you have to embrace it... you have to believe it...

@Trent - it doesnt matter what I got and what you got if we weren't playing... that's just like the philly saying well if we had that same high score of 37 when we plan dallas against any other team that day we would have won... get outta here... all that matters is when we see each other...

@the f it list - do you not know that Eb likes to eat... especially when its free ... YES... I will make the trip...lol

Eb, can I just say THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU for this post?

Man I tried that sauce Saturday and then the entire recipe Sunday and it is/was off the hook. I've sent the link to several friends and I just had to blog about the sauce.
