Favorite Halloween Candy

In the life of a busy family, even a work family like the one at Paula Deen Enterprises, meal time is the perfect time to really listen to those important people in you life, in our case....coworkers. Gathering around the board room table over a catered lunch from The Lady and Son's has been a great time to delve just a little deeper into each others thoughts and feelings. For us, finding out what song Paula remembers dancing to on her prom night leads to a room full of laughs and colorful stories.

Sometimes, a simple question can also bridge a gap or mend a fence where needed. Finding out through this form of sharing that you each would want the same “last supper” seems to bond infinitely better than sharing a copy machine. Try a question tomorrow at work and see where the conversation can lead you. In Paula Deen land, our questions always seem to be centered around food, but it's funny how the answers can quickly take the conversations elsewhere.

This is an easy and timely question to get you started. It was fun for us!
