Paula: We made my favorite fried shrimp recipe. Let me tell you, that lady is a good eater!
OK!: Did you think Michelle is a good cook?
Paula: From what I could see, I can tell she spends time in the kitchen. She was very relaxed when we cooked together.
OK!: What do you think Michelle would make in the White House?
Paula: Well I know that Senator Obama loves his chili. Michelle shared with me that they love to entertain casually and family style. That's my style too! I promised that I would make them my fried chicken if they move into the White House. Boy, would that be fun!
