Book Signing & Cooking Demo: Barnes & Noble, Harvey, LA-Saturday, December 18, 2010

12-18-10 Kid Chef Eliana gets ready to demonstrate 2X2 Chicken Fajita Soup

Hey Young Chefs:

It’s been a very busy holiday season and I haven’t had the chance to blog! I’ve had lots of events, family functions, and parties! On Saturday, December 18, I did a holiday cooking demonstration and book signing at the Barnes & Noble in Harvey, Louisiana. I demonstrated my 2X2 Chicken Fajita Soup. It’s called 2X2 because it has two helpings of each ingredient.

The soup was delicioso and everyone loved it! I served it with flour tortillas. The recipe for 2X2 Chicken Fajita soup can be found in my cookbook, Eliana Cooks! Recipes for Creative Kids. After my cooking demonstration, I signed books. It was a ton of fun. Thank you Ms. Jane French and Ms. Stacey Hensley of Barnes & Noble. Thank you also to my family, friends, and fans who came and supported me!

Hey Young Chefs!

This past weekend, I had a book signing at A Tisket A Tasket gift store in the French Quarter in New Orleans. I signed books with my mom, Children’s Author & Storyteller Dianne de Las Casas.

The night before, I baked mini Devil’s Food Monster Muffins from my cookbook, which I passed out as samples, with apple cider at my book signing. It was crowded and I sold tons of books. In fact, I sold out!

People were buying copies as Christmas presents for the young chefs in their lives. Very cool!

It was a lot of fun and I loved working with Ms. Lisa Jones and Ms. Judy. They are so sweet. So next time you are in the French Quarter, stop by A Tisket A Tasket!

Cool kids cook and get creative in the kitchen!

Bon Appetit, Eliana
