- Y'all, my family is so, so blessed
0:07
in so many ways,
0:09
but I have two of the most wonderful ladies
0:13
in my kitchen right now and y'all are supposed to be down
0:17
in the store working, aren't you? (laughing)
0:19
- My day off.
0:20
- Oh, it's your day. - We have a day off today.
0:23
We work tomorrow.
0:25
- Y'all, these two ladies,
0:29
they're the heartbeat of the store.
0:31
Renee,
0:35
she is a salesman like I've never seen.
0:38
I mean, she knows our products
0:42
and she doesn't mind sharing how good they are.
0:47
Now, Betsy,
0:50
she got a nickname down there at the store
0:53
that Renee gave her,
0:57
BB.
0:59
Well, the second B is for Betsy.
1:01
- But we won't say what-
1:02
- You'll have to figure out what first be B is for
1:07
'cause Renee says she complains a lot.
1:12
Griping, always griping.
1:14
- I have my days, Paula, I have my days.
1:17
- But let me tell ya, Betsy is the one
1:24
that addresses the, what word am I looking for?
1:28
- Display. - [Renee] Merchandise.
1:30
- Merchandise. - Yeah.
1:31
I mean, she knows how to show our merchandise
1:36
at its very best light. - Thank you.
1:39
- And I tell you what, you better not come in there
1:41
and move something around.
1:42
I think Eddie made that mistake once.
1:44
- He does it. (Paula laughing)
1:47
He does it.
1:48
(Eddie laughing)
1:49
- [Renee] Troy will come in there and move something
1:51
and just wait for her to come upstairs.
1:54
- He does it on purpose. - [Renee] On purpose.
1:56
- And we had someone who used to do that to me all the time.
1:59
- [Eddie] Now see, I'm not moving.
2:01
I'm just filling in spaces while you're out.
2:03
- Oh, okay.
2:04
- [Eddie] I'm just, you know?
2:05
- But these two ladies, I mean,
2:07
they are truly a part of our family.
2:12
- [Renee] We are the ones that are lucky
2:13
to be in your family. - Well, thank you.
2:14
- [Renee] We love working for you.
2:15
- Can I say something?
2:17
- Please say something.
2:18
- I just wanted to let you know
2:21
that this is such an honor for me
2:23
to be in this kitchen with the queen of Southern cuisine.
2:29
It's an honor.
2:31
- I just love you girls.
2:33
I love y'all so much. - Love you too.
2:36
Love you too.
2:37
- Y'all can't think about retirement.
2:38
We ain't gonna think about retirement.
2:41
One day Renee said, "I'm getting ready to retire."
2:43
I said, "Oh no, you're not."
2:44
(Paula laughing)
2:46
- And she keeps saying that and I said,
2:48
"What will you do with yourself?"
2:49
- That's right, she'd be miserable.
2:51
- I can't, I can't.
2:53
- [Renee] I love my job, I can't quit it.
2:54
- I can't. - [Renee] I really do.
2:56
It's the best place to work in the world,
2:58
we have so much fun. - We do.
3:00
- I know, we do have fun.
3:02
And some of the most wonderful people in the world
3:04
walk through those door. - [Renee] Yes, they do.
3:05
- And they compliment us all the time
3:08
for the fun that we do have and how well we get along.
3:12
- Yes, yes.
3:14
And people can feel,
3:16
strangers can come in there and they can feel
3:19
whether there's tension or not.
3:21
- And they interact with us too.
3:23
- Yes. - Yeah, yes.
3:24
- All right, so we are in the 12 days of Christmas cookies
3:30
and I asked Betsy to come in
3:34
and make her favorite Christmas cookie.
3:38
- Well, actually, it's an old family recipe,
3:40
but it is my favorite cookie.
3:42
Doesn't matter what time of the year is.
3:44
- Okay, well, I'm gonna be your sous chef.
3:47
- Okay.
3:48
- So I'm gonna do whatever you tell me to do.
3:51
- [Betsy] Wanna beat that up?
3:53
- I sure do.
3:54
Now, are these in the right holes, yes.
3:57
All right, so tell everybody,
4:00
well, I'm gonna have to beat this and turn it off.
4:02
- You're beating two sticks of butter.
4:05
This recipe is called 100 Good Cookies
4:09
and it does make 100 cookies.
4:14
- You know I'm gonna count 'em.
4:15
- Yeah, uh-huh, and I have.
4:17
Yes.
4:18
So that's the- - It's a lot of ingredients.
4:21
- It's a lot.
4:22
- You got brown sugar, white sugar, oil, is that oil?
4:25
And egg, vanilla flavoring, flour,
4:29
baking powder, soda, salt, coconut, oatmeal.
4:36
- [Betsy] Rice Krispies.
4:38
- [Paula] Snap, crackle and pop.
4:39
- [Betsy] Snap, crackle and pop and-
4:41
- Nuts. - Nuts and chocolate chips.
4:43
- Okay, all right.
4:45
So you want me to just beat your sugars with your butter?
4:47
- With all that. - Okay.
4:49
- There you go.
4:51
Easy as pie. - Dump and dump.
4:53
- I'll dump you.
4:55
- All right, tell me what to do.
4:56
- Egg and oil. - Okay.
5:00
- You doing all right?
5:03
You all right?
5:05
- All right, why don't you take over this?
5:06
- Alrighty.
5:07
- And I'll do this since I'm near the ingredients.
5:12
- There you go.
5:13
- Now, just slowly do that? - Yep, that's good.
5:16
- Okay.
5:17
And now I'm gonna add your tablespoon of vanilla extract.
5:22
- Very good.
5:26
- Uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh.
5:28
Look at that. - Oh, perfect, look at that.
5:30
- Perfect. - Oh my gosh.
5:32
- Got a dead soul over here, Eddie.
5:35
- [Eddie] Gotta make some more soon.
5:37
- Yep.
5:39
All right, now I'm gonna take all the dry ingredients
5:43
and whisk 'em together.
5:45
- [Betsy] That is a perfect idea and then-
5:49
- [Paula] Oh, that reminds me of that,
5:50
when I was on Oprah-
5:51
- [Betsy] And then we just-
5:52
- [Paula] And the mixer was running
5:53
and I dropped this bowl into that running mixer.
5:58
Oh, it was just awful.
6:00
- [Betsy] I think I remember you doing that.
6:02
- [Paula] I did it, I did it, I did it.
6:05
All right, do we have a whisk?
6:07
- [Betsy] Mm-hmm.
6:08
- Okay, watch you (indistinct).
6:12
Here we go.
6:14
Just gonna whisk that all together
6:17
and then I'm assuming that we slowly add the flour
6:20
and then stir in all this stuff.
6:22
- And then stir in that, yes, ma'am.
6:24
- Yes.
6:25
You know, basically cookies are the same procedure.
6:35
- [Betsy] Just different flavors.
6:36
- [Paula] Uh-huh, that's right.
6:42
And you just tell me when you want more.
6:44
- [Betsy] More.
6:46
- [Paula] Oh, got you.
6:49
- Now, all the other stuff and just stir it in.
6:53
- Okay, does it matter? - [Betsy] No.
6:55
- [Paula] Should I give it time or?
6:56
- [Betsy] Doesn't matter, nope.
6:57
- Okay. - Go ahead.
7:01
- [Paula] This whole bag?
7:01
- [Betsy] Okay, yes, ma'am.
7:04
- [Paula] So this is an oatmeal chocolate cereal.
7:08
- [Renee] Whatever.
7:09
(Paula and Betsy laughing)
7:11
100 good cookies.
7:13
- [Paula] It's like everything
7:14
but the kitchen sink's in this, y'all.
7:17
- [Betsy] I had one of my favorite aunts was quite a baker
7:20
and I think that's who I take after anyway,
7:23
but anyway, she lived in Colorado
7:28
and she made these cookies and brought 'em home
7:31
when she came for a visit one time
7:32
and I was just maybe 10 or 12.
7:35
I don't even remember.
7:36
- Just a couple of years ago. - Oh my God.
7:38
Oh, yeah, a couple of years ago.
7:39
(Paula laughing)
7:42
Couple of 100 years ago. (Paula and Eddie laughing)
7:47
Anyways, so- - You may need this spatula
7:49
in a while so I'm gonna leave it out but I'm gonna-
7:51
- Okay.
7:52
- I'm gonna put all this other stuff-
7:53
- I think we're ready.
7:54
- Okey-doke. - All right.
7:56
- [Paula] Now, what do you use to-
8:01
- You know, it says roll 'em in a ball,
8:04
but sometimes I do, sometimes that's too much.
8:07
Yeah.
8:08
So we're just gonna use a teaspoon.
8:10
- Okay.
8:12
You know, I tell everybody,
8:13
it's so very important that all of your cookies
8:16
be the same size.
8:17
- [Renee] Ice cream scoop.
8:18
- Because if you get a big one and a little one more, well-
8:21
- I think that's too big.
8:22
- You think that's too big?
8:24
- Do you want try it?
8:25
- Yeah, let's try it.
8:26
Let me spray it. - Okay.
8:28
- So it'll come out. - Okay.
8:30
- Easy for us.
8:34
Yeah and you can look at it and see
8:36
'cause we want 100 cookies.
8:39
- [Eddie] We're shooting for 100 cookies.
8:41
- Well, that's all right.
8:42
Yeah, I know and be-
8:43
- [Paula] So show me about how big
8:46
and you can scoop that,
8:48
you can level it like that or you can do a heaping.
8:52
So since this is your cookie.
8:54
- Let's see.
8:56
Let's see.
8:58
- [Paula] What does that look like?
8:59
- That looks like a tablespoon, doesn't it?
9:02
- All right, what are you supposed to be doing?
9:04
- Well, it-
9:05
- Says drop by one tablespoon.
9:07
That's a tablespoon. - How about that?
9:08
- Let's see.
9:09
- [Theresa] How about this size?
9:10
- Yeah, so you evened it off, you've-
9:12
- [Theresa] That's a smaller one.
9:14
- Oh, okay.
9:16
- You like that one better?
9:17
- Yeah, let's do that.
9:18
- Okay, let me spray it.
9:22
- Then that way we will have-
9:24
- BB! Let me spray that.
9:26
- Then we will have 100 good cookies.
9:28
(can spritzing)
9:31
- Okay, there you go.
9:32
- All right.
9:34
- And I'm gonna go take a nap.
9:36
- No, you're not.
9:37
- Yes, I am.
9:38
(Paula laughing)
9:40
'Cause it's gonna take a while to get 100 cookies, y'all.
9:44
- Well, we're not really-
9:44
- Might wanna call in a friend.
9:48
Now, y'all, Betsy said one of the most important things
9:50
about these cookies is that you mash 'em down.
9:54
- [Betsy] Use your finger or fork,
9:56
but it's easier to use your finger.
9:58
- It is and if you don't wanna get stuff all over ya,
10:03
just keep your flour there and dip your fingers in it
10:06
and it'll keep your fingers from getting goopy.
10:09
- Right.
10:10
- But these are the perfect size that you have here for us.
10:13
(Betsy laughing) - They're perfect.
10:17
- I do know what I'm doing sometimes.
10:18
- You do know what you're doing, honey.
10:21
So, so far, y'all, we've got 55 cookies
10:25
and we got this much dough left.
10:27
So I'm saying we got more than 100.
10:30
- [Betsy] Probably.
10:32
- Which is good, right?
10:36
You approve? - I do.
10:38
- [Renee] We all do.
10:41
- [Paula] You like it, Renee?
10:42
- [Renee] I love it.
10:43
- [Paula] Theresa, you get one?
10:45
- [Theresa] Mm-hmm.
10:46
- You guys, she's chewing right as she's trying to speak.
10:48
- [Theresa] (indistinct) Could be a Peggy
10:49
and not the Georgia couple.
10:50
- Oh good, good, thank you.
10:54
Eddie?
10:56
- [Eddie] It's good.
10:57
- Is it a thumbs up for ya?
10:58
- [Eddie] Yes, mm-hmm.
10:59
- Well, where's your thumb?
11:00
- [Eddie] Very good.
11:02
(Paula and Betsy laughing)
11:04
- It was wrapped around his cookie.
11:05
- Yeah, his thumb was occupied.
11:09
Mmm, very good.
11:10
- Mmm.
11:12
- [Renee] Very good.
11:13

11:22

- Yep.
11:26
- Mmm, mmm, mmm.
