southerncooker from Boomer, NC

Paula Deen starts the book off just like she does her show -- Hey, Y'all!. I can hear her voice with the familiar southern drawl as I read the introduction. In the introduction she continues the story where she left off in a previous book. She shares some more about her and Michael and of marrying him on a food network special called Paula Deen's Wedding. She also shares a little about the movie Elizabethtown she played in. She ends the introduction similar to the way she always ends her shows, sending best dishes and love from Savannah, GA.

Lots of great sounding recipes Deen style are included in this book. If you enjoy Paula's Home Cooking, her other cookbooks, or southern cuisine, then this is the book for you. Paula and her friends share stories, ideas for southern style entertaining and their recipes in this wonderful book.

I like the little notes from Paula included with each recipe. Be forewarned though for those who don't enjoy colored ink, the ingredients for each recipe are in dark blue ink, the rest of the recipe is in black. I don't think the dark blue is hard to read at all though so maybe it won't distract from the recipe for anyone.
