Thought this was really cute. Love the title of the new cookbook. I will definitely be picking it up as soon as it hits shelves. Can't wait to see the video - Trey Fanjoy is an awesome video director. Should be a fun video.


Trisha loves working in Nashville, then heading back home

By BEVERLY KEEL

Oklahoma resident Trisha Yearwood is in Nashville working this week, and she says she loves her time in Nashville more than ever.
"I think I enjoy it more because I'm not really caught up in the day to day," said Trisha, who moved near Tulsa, Okla., in 2003 to be near Garth Brooks. "It was very easy when I lived in Nashville for 15 years to think that the crisis over what shirt to wear for this TV show is an important issue. It's easy when you move to a place like Oklahoma, where the issues are how do I talk to my daughter about a friend of hers from school running away from home. We've got to figure out who has got the uniform for the soccer game tonight and is it clean.
"I can go in (to Nashville) and do what I love to do. If there's some big drama or newest gossip, I usually have no clue what's going on, and it's kind of nice to say, 'I don't have any idea about that.' I can really enjoy the music part and then go home and enjoy the life part."
Today she is shooting the Trey Fanjoy-directed video for "Heaven, Heartache and the Power of Love," the first single off her first album on Big Machine Records, which hits streets in November. "It just seemed like the right first single to come out with guns blazing," she said. "It's a really up-in-your-face kind of song. I'm hoping people will say, 'It sounds like they were having a good time in the studio.'"
She finished the album in a month. "I don't think I've made an album this fast since the first one," she said.
While here, she stays at the Brentwood home that she has owned for six years. "I've thought about selling it, but I really like feeling like I am home when I'm there," she said.
Garth still owns a Nashville home as well, but he tends to stay at Trisha's house when he's here. "We like my place, but he worked so hard to get all this land," she said. "We don't want to be multi-home owners, but we haven't figured out how" to solve the situation yet.
In April she will be releasing a cookbook with her sister and mother called Georgia Cooking in an Oklahoma Kitchen that features recipes of her mom's and grandmother's. "A lot of those recipes weren't written down, so I'm excited about having this book to hold in my hand of all the family recipes."

Thanks for posting this! I love the name of the cookbook too. I'm sure I'll be buying a copy also!

Can't wait to see the new video. They usually get them done pretty fast, so maybe? it will be ready for July 30 when the single officially goes for adds? It's such a great song that I expect it is going to be a really fun video!

She is just the coolest.

Very cool! Thanks for posting that! I loved reading it. Can't wait for the video, and the cookbook!

I look forward to seeing the video and can't wait for April...

It seems like I've been waiting for this cookbook FOREVER! I can't wait to get my hands on it--I know that I've really loved the other recipes that Trisha has given out....

Also, Loved the whole article--TRISHA ROCKS -N-STUFF!!!!(ok, I HAD to say that--you know I did Sandi and Lish!) LOVE HER LOVE HER!

Ahhh, the video--CAN'T WAIT To SEE THAT!!

Hey, I just noticed this article was added to the home page!

Just have to share the following because it made a good start to my day. I was listening to the radio on my way into work this morning and I flipped to a station where the djs were in the middle of talking about this article, Trisha and her new album and of course Garth. You would have to hear it, but I was dying laughing. They were excited for the new album, even though they haven't played the song, that I know of anyway, and the lady dj was like, yeah glad to see Trisha's back because somebody's gotta support poor ole Garth. They were talking about their "problem" of having too many houses. Then the other dj was like I wonder if they go to the atm when they go out to a movie or whatever, and he was like nah, they have someone do that for them. And then he said I wonder if the "finders keepers" rule applies at their house, like if Trisha finds a wad of $100s in Garth's jeans when she's doing laundry. I couldn't stop laughing at that one because we all know Garth is the laundry king in that household LMAO

That's cute! I have that rule in my house, but for some reason, I only find dimes and pennies

LOL! Yeah, me too!
