        Alton Brown is going to be at my favorite boookstore this friday for a book signing!

        I totally had a moment of OMG HAPPY! I’m definately getting my Good Eats book signed!

        πŸ˜€ πŸ˜€ πŸ˜€

        I’m so excited to meet someone whose work I’ve admired on tv, not often that sort of thing happens!

              How fun!! I love Alton Brown for his knowledge. He can be a bit of a jerk in person though, hahah. XD

                ????

                you have met him? and he was a jerk?

                everything I’ve read says he’s a pretty genial person, and I’m still looking forward to finding out for myself.

                  How fun πŸ™‚ I love Alton’s Carrot Cake recipe. I made it last Thanksgiving :yum: And I love his chocolate chip cookie recipes. Before the Three Chips for Sister episode, I didn’t know when to use shortening over butter and baking soda over baking powder. He’s changed my baking for the better πŸ˜€

                    learning how ingredients work together in different recipes has been a big help in allowing more creativity in my cooking. I’m a hopeless experimenter in the kitchen. πŸ˜€

                        above link is journal entry, with pics, of meeting Alton Brown! (too lazy to deal with photobucket this morn…. 😳 ) It was great, even if there was alot of waiting, he took time to talk to everyone, and promised to stay until everyone had a chance to say hello and get whatever books they wanted signed.

                        In case the above link is snarky, the following is just a basic link to my blog.

                          I love Alton πŸ˜€ I am curious about what Jennifer is talking about, though…?

                            yeah..me too. He has a bit of sarcasm to his manner and comedy, but overall was a nice guy. I know some people take sarcasm badly, and that can translate into “jerk” but other than that I’m unsure.

                                I’ve seen him react poorly to silliness, which is sad because I thought he’d be open to it based on his show and how silly it is sometimes. I’ve seen once where someone asked him a silly question (not offensive) and he really tore the fan a new one! Maybe those are just his bad days.
