I’m on the road, “book touring” with Mamma, and being a very bad blogger. There were the New York events, then Baltimore, Mobile, Alabama came next and now I’m in my hometown of Pensacola, Florida.
But when all the excitement happens, I kinda curl up, wanting to enjoy it but mostly disbelieving it. Blogging about it is actually the last thing I want to do.
But then the New York Daily News hits me over the head with an amazingly fun piece on me and BELLE!
“Think Paula Deen, Scarlett O’Hara, and - dare we say it -maybe just a hint of Rachael Ray. Brooke Parkhurst, Southern belle, highly energetic cook extraordinaire, and now, first-time novelist, just hit the road to promote her first novel, “Belle in the Big Apple”, and it’s somehow fitting that the Florida Panhandle transplant is taking along Mom…”

Hey Brooke-
It has been so great to watch your success and I know your book will do great! I am so sorry that we were out of town and missed your book opening in Birmingham-I was really looking forward to catching up with you and your mom. Plus I wanted an autographed book from our famous girl! Please let me know if you come back through soon-or maybe I will see you in Pensacola soon. Best of luck and I am dying to read the book! Take care- Catherine Brown Bodnar
