Hey everyone,
Just to let everyone know I am just taking alittle break from the road. Back to work in the OC hair salon and visiting with my family and friends. I will be resting up for future events like Nascar, Baseball and Motorcross. I have enjoyed meeting so many different people along my travels and growing through this amazing journey.
Julia goes to the Super Bowl!!! Wow, what a great experience! I went to the Super Bowl with the American Tailgaters Assoc. as a celebrity chef/author along with Dawgpound Mike, Jeff "Doc" Dockery, and Lana Wiley. We were showcasing our talents with hourly tailgating demonstrations and just meeting tons of people! I went to some great VIP party's at the hottest spots in Scottsdale as well ESPN's Sean Salisbury's Celebrity Charity event.
My book is now distributed all across the country and used by many! Adam Kennedy from the Saint Luis Cardinals loves the Chicken Recipe as well as John Lackey from the Anaheim Angels who loved all the recipe's! Carlos and Leon Lett love the book as well and Lomas Brown can't wait to cook it up with me at the Super Bowl. Bandera Restaurant in Corona Del Mar are enjoying my book and I just want to thank you guys for always giving me a table!
Hey everyone I recently had a great book review by Dave Lamm with tailgatingideas.com. I am so grateful for the feed back and I hope everyone checks out Texas Longhorn Coach Augie Garrido's favorite tailgating menu!
Thank you so much for the review.
Check out my interview by the Daily Pilot News Paper in Corona Del Mar.
Cinderella is going to her ball. I had a beautiful light blue, sequined gown and Via Spaga Shoes, that definately made an entrance. Jimmy Hopper was the entertainment, and there was a Vodka bar, Champagne bar, Sushi bar, and the Coco Lounge, their own Dessert Room! What a fabulous night of dancing and being with a wonderful gentleman as my date. We hung out with all of Newport while we sipped on Martini's and Champagne. A dazzling evening and beautiful memories when the ball dropped. Happy New Years Everyone!
The Salon L Holiday Party was a great sucess this year! We all donated gifts for needy family's this year and we had a great result. Everyone was so giving and I am so glad we could make a difference in a family's Christmas this year.
