'Cook of the Week 1 Wanda Sullivan learns 'long-distance' dishes By Pauline Lewie Society Editor Wanda Sullivan, a Perry businesswoman, is the Houston Times-Journal’s "Cook of the Week.” She and her husband, Patrick (Pat) are owners of W.D. Sullivan & Co., at the comer of Jemigan and Carroll Streets. They carry lines of fine gifts and office supplies and have been in business here since June 1992, when they purchased it, then known as Shaheen’s, from the Shaheen family. A native of Bibb County, Wanda and her family moved to Houston County in 1968 and she graduated from Warner Robins High School., completed Macon College coursework in 1978 and University of Georgia coursework in 1984. She completed various employer-sponsored courses in supervisory training, documentation maintenance, U. S. Government Industrial Security and Contract Management. Prior to owning W. D. Sullivan & Co., her work experience included six years in Operations/Payroll of the Finance program in the 2853rd Air Base Group at Robins AF Base and three years as administrative assistant in the Program Office of Litton Systems, Applied Technology Division. For four years she was a supervisor in Tech Support/Administration with Comarco in the Logistics Technology Division. She worked five years in various programs with Logistic Systems Architects, Inc., and a year as an analyst with the Electronic Systems of ARINC Research Corporation Her background experience has evidently fitted her well for operating her business successfully. When asked how she learned to cook, she said, “I learned to cook after marriage and via telephone from the school of “Mom, how do you do it?” “My family still goes to grandmother’s to eat. Patrick likes to grill and is a good cook; my mom taught him how to make biscuits. "His sister is a chef and his mom is a wonderful cook and baker. In fact, most of my recipes have come from her. She is Marjorie (Maij) Sullivan and lives in Downers Groove, 111. She flies down and bakes for us at Christmas. “I was formerly known as the Celebrities will bag for kids' safety On Saturday, September 17, from 10 a.m. until 4 p.m., some of Perrymost well-known celebrities will be bagging groceries at Kroger, in an effort to raise money for Safe Kids of Georgia in Houston County and create awareness about the prevention of childhood injuries. Each year, more children are killed because of injuries that are preventable and costly. Last year in Georgia, over 100 children were killed in motor vehicle and bike crashes. Such injuries and deaths can be prevented with a child safety seat or a bike helmet. “The health and safety of our children is the responsibility of all of us,” said Melanie Elliott, coordinator of Safe Kids of Georgia in Houston County. “This event allows everyone in the community to contribute. Whether you are bagging groceries, learning about safety or buying groceries, you can make a difference in a child’s life.” Funds raised from Safe Kids Day and a donation of a percentage of sales on September 17 from Kroger will be used by the Safe Kids of Georgia in Houston County Coalition to purchase child safety seats, bike helmets, smoke detectors and other pieces of child safety equipment for children in the area who are in need. In addition to the celebrity grocery baggers, Safe Kids Day will feature safely exhibits, drawings for free bike safety helmets and car seats, bike registration, child Wednesday Sept 7,1994 1B “Cheese Cake Lady”: because I made them commercially for restaurants in Macon, Warner Robins and Houston Lake Country Club.” Patrick is accounting manager at Zantop International Airlines at Macon Airport.
