Katie Workman came through Dallas on a national tour on May 23, 2012 to promote her new cookbook,
The MOM 100: 100 recipes every Mom needs in her back pocket. My friend,
Dedie Leahy, called and asked me if I would help her put together a luncheon and book-signing with some "Mom influencers, media and food bloggers". Since I do consider myself quite the connector of fabulous folks, I agreed.
My first call was to the ever so amazing
Candace Evans. You might know Candy from her years at
D Home Magazine. She is now the editor and creator of
Candy's Dirt and
Second Shelters. You want to know the scoop on Dallas Real Estate, hot houses, the best realtors? Candy's your gal. She's an incredible Mother with an amazing home, so I asked her to host this soiree and she generously agreed.

The MOM 100 is the lifesaving cookbook that every mom needs, filled
with delicious, no-fuss, easily adaptable recipes, plus tips, attitude
and wisdom for surviving and staying happy in the kitchen while proudly
keeping it homemade. Because homemade not only tastes best, it is best
for you.
The Mom 100 dazzles with main-dish meats, Monday Night Brisket to
Apple-Glazed Pork Chops, fish dishes they’ll actually eat, healthy
snacks and pretty healthy desserts, like fun Fruit Salad on a Stick. Picky eaters? Breakfast insanity? Last-minute company? Don’t worry – the Mom100’s got you covered! Grab your copy wherever books are sold. Or there's always
Amazon.
