On July 22 and 23, 2010 Seger and his crew transformed the concert stage at the fair into a full kitchen for Paula Deen. Outstanding cabinetry, granite counters and appliances, windows and engaging spaces combined for an "amazing...fabulous" venue according to Ms. Deen. She said she felt right at home. |
