I have been an Oprah fan for years… I respect her professionally for so many reasons and am bound and determined to one day sit on the couch across from her and have a lovely little chat. So as it is the kick off of Oprah’s 24th season, I thought I would take a week to shed a little bit of light about my love for the lady. Oprah always does a “favorite things” episode and below are some of Oprah’s favorite things that I myself am quite fond of also.
One of my favorite things Oprah has ever talked about on her show is the red velvet cake she scouted out at the old Doughboy’s Bakery. A few years back the popular Los Angeles bakery went out of business. What people don’t know is that Oprah’s favorite red velvet cake lives on! The owner of the property reopened the restaurant when the former Doughboy’s owner disappeared. The restaurant relaunched as The Corner and retained some of the same staff including the baker. So if you want to sample the red velvet cake that Gale and Oprah voted as best in the country you just need to head over to The Corner in Hollywood. If you don’t already, you should follow Oprah on twitter.
