I got sudden inspiration for a new pet after seeing so many of those hilarious Paula Deen Riding Things images. Don't know what I'm talking about? ENJOY
So meet Hoecake ❤ (not a jab at Paula, it's one of the foods she makes!)
It's Paula Deen. And she's a fairy. She sits on your shoulder while you're cooking and whispers conspiratorially, "Use more butterrrrr..."
First Request: I need to incorporate butter into her design somewhere. At first I thought, "Her magic wand, of course!" But wait. That wouldn't be obvious enough. It needs to be a stick of butter, or else it'll just be a... yellow wand. So I thought, "The handle could be a stick of butter!" But that would look weird. ANY IDEAS LOVELY PEOPLE?
Second Request: Help me with ideas for her TC? I don't have any of Paula's cookbooks and actually think her food sounds disgusting (former vegan talking here) so I'm kind of at a loss as to what to get. Butter (obvsly), cakes, bacon... greasy foods? Halp!
Thank you!! Please ping
P.S. DID ANYONE ELSE KNOW THAT SUBETA HAS NO "STICK OF BUTTER" ITEM? I was so sad to come to that realization. :(
A stick butter wand was what I thought, too. Dx But you're right. Yellow wand = not cool enough. I am super sleepy now, but I will come back tomorrow when my brain is working correctly and make suggestions.
Although, I think and could probably offer some awesome ideas! ❤️

Good luck! There's totally not enough butter items. XD
You could always make the tip of the butter wand a tub of butter. When I say "tub of butter", I mean something like this.
As for her TC, I would stick to "soul" food. Anything that tastes great, but will probably kill you. Cooking utensils would be great too. :)
Good luck with Hoecake!
I love that website xD Also, that's all I got for now. They don't all have butter on them, but I feel they're pretty Paula-esk.
Man. I love her~ Great pet idea : D
I know she does a lot of southern recipes, so cornbread, biscuits, ham, lots of gravy, etc.

And I was actually thinking, rather than a wand, could you maybe make her halo out of butter? It could pretty much stay the same color but look sort of soft and melty.

If this Paula Deen person 'rides' things around, which apparently is part of her humor... then should not your pet be riding around butter? Considering the pose of the Angelic Dillema, it ought not be too hard to make it look like its lazing on top of a (albeit gigantic) stick of butter. Or maybe the butter has sprouted limbs and is magically (fairy powers activate?) in the shape of some animal that the Dillema could be riding around? Even if the poor thing is half-melting.
Ahaha glorious pet idea!
Perhaps the Halo (if you plan on keeping it in the overlay) and the wings could be partially melty and dripping butter? and the wand could be, like the picture Pinto posted?
Thanks for the TC suggestions! :D Haha subeta does seem to be seriously lacking in the staples of southern cuisine. XD
Thank you and for your butter ideas!! I'm getting so many awesome ideas for this baby. I love the idea of butter wings and a little butter pet for Paula to rid around on. omg. XD
Edit: There also seems to be a massive shortage in regards to gardening tools. D: How can I make a Hoecake without a hoe?
Haha Welcome. Also...You should find away to include Y'all in there somewhere xD she says that almost too much xD or "From my/our kitchen to yours" xD
