The Amazon Store at MillionDollarPetPix.com ( In association with Amazon.com )Screen Doors and Sweet Tea: Recipes and Tales from a Southern Cook - Great cookbookThis is a wonderful cookbook. The recipes are easy to make, and the book is very beautiful. Great pictures and stories. I read the whole thing from cover to cover without putting it down! Loved it! Rating: - Screen Doors and Sweet TeaExcellent content and very attractivly packaged. Great gift for wives, mothers, grandmothers and new brides. Rating: - screen doors and sweet teaApricot Rice Salad, Watermelon Salsa, new fashion Cabbage Rolls plus a few concotions with burbon that you haven't thought of yet, its all in here. The author treats the reader with a small story about how the recipie came about, that reads like a book. All in all, the cookbook is delightful and the recipies will be your new old favorites. I have family on the west coast that I'm buying another copy to give to them, the recipies are delicious and so are the stories of how they got concocted. The author trained in france but this is her honest to goodness southern recipies, with a twist that makes them new again. Delightful. Rating: - just hated the bookI paid full price for this book, not usual for me. I just did not like this book. I didn't like the recipts, nor did I like the stories. It was just not my cup of tea. (excuse the pun) And, what is a pompano? yes, I get it is a fish but I don't recall being able to purchase it in the shoprite. I just didn't like the book I guess. ( PS, I was raised in the south). Rating: - Good to the last pageAs a southerner straddling the geographical Mason Dixon line, good southern food is not something found in excess around here (but close enough I can still drive too it) This cookbook is simply delicious. The recipes are accessible and just plain fantastic, her deviled eggs are simply the best ever and her strawberry cupcakes were the biggest hit at my local church picnic. The stories accompanying the recipes make you feel like Martha's giving you the recipe while sitting next to you and fanning herself on the back porch after a big supper. I simply adore the cookbook and have given it to several friends as gifts and they love it just as much. If there is ONE cookbook you must have in your southern cookbook library, this is it.
