Michelle Obama is getting some TV time with
the Food Network's first lady of Southern cooking.
The wife of Democrat Barack Obama recently joined Savannah's
Paula Deen in the kitchen to tape an episode of Deen's show
"Paula's Party." Deen publicist Nancy Assuncao said Friday the two women
cooked fried shrimp and french fries and
swapped stories about their families' favorite meals.
Assuncao said Michelle Obama told Deen her husband's not into
fancy foods and his favorite dish at home is chili. Deen offered to
cook for them at the White House if Obama is elected president.
What Deen isn't offering is a political endorsement. Assuncao
said Deen doesn't discuss her personal politics.
She said the celebrity cook also has invited Republican John
McCain's wife, Cindy, and his running mate, Alaska Gov. Sarah
Palin, to appear on her show.
