Ree Drummond and Dennis Lehane!

We've got not one, but two, amazing author clips to share today! The first is one of my heroines, Ree Drummond (the Pioneer Woman) on the Today Show.  With some help from Al Roker, Ree makes her famous "evil" cinnamon rolls, loaded up with plenty of butter and gooey maple icing.  Check out the clip here, which includes the recipe.  If anything can beat the morning frost, it's these rolls.  I dare you not to salivate watching them.

Next up! We absolutely love Craig Ferguson, even though he thinks a book is "kind of like a blog, but interesting." ALA favorite Dennis Lehane, who needs no introduction, appeared on Craig's show to chat about Moonlight Mile, the sequel to Gone, Baby, Gone.   Enjoy!

The Pioneer Woman on Throwdown with Bobby Flay

9780061658198 Okay, so yesterday I spent upwards of 10 minutes explaining the appeal of Throwdown to the office.  Hulu has the following description of the show:

"Chef Bobby Flay is on a secret mission to challenge the absolute masters in one kind of cooking — award winning BBQers, bakers, pizza makers and more — some with a roomful of trophies to prove it. In each episode, one of these cooks thinks Food Network is shooting their profile for a show. What they don't know is that Bobby is going to drop in for a surprise visit and challenge them to an unexpected cook-off. Since they're in their element and Bobby's out of his, prepare for an exciting, tension-filled competition."

I happen to really love Bobby Flay, whether he's winning or losing with grace.  He's not a broad-market television personality–he's a true-blue chef.  Plus, his culinary assistants are constantly ribbing him, which means part of the fun is watching their banter in the test-kitchen.   

Why am I telling you all this? Yesterday we got a memo from our publicity department: our author, Ree Drummond, is facing off with Bobby next week on Throwdown! Ree is the author of The Pioneer Woman Cooks and will be throwing down for a Thanksgiving challenge, a week from today.  That's November 17th, 9 pm EST on the Food Network.  Clearly I'm psyched, but what about you? In Bobby's words: "Keep doing what you do, but ask yourself this: are you ready for a throwdown?"

 PS: My blind devotion to Throwdown might be a bi-product of these sticky buns from Flour Bakery.  If you're ever in Boston, they are epic. See below!
