Southern Hospitality

"Georgia on my Menu: A Medley of Southern Hits truly can be said to represent two areas of life with which Georgians are intimately acquainted - the appreciation of fine Southern cooking and the desire to have music in one's life." ~Beverly Webb Georgia on my menu is an authentic cookbook filled with delicious recipes celebrating fine Southern cooking and a rich cultural heritage. Cooks can begin with Overtures and Preludes, serve an Accompaniment along with a recipe from the Encore section and then complete the meal with a Finale. A Traditional Georgian Dinner may include a Baked Ham, Spoon Bread, Southern Style Green Beans, Baked Squash, Deep Dish Peach Cobbler and Southern Mint Tea. Special Occasion Menus include a Fireside Dinner for Six, Birthday Dinners, Barbecues and even a New Year's Eve Buffet. Unique Recipes include Mock Champagne (made with pineapple juice and soda), Apricot Wine Soup, Fresh Curried Peaches, Pork Loin Roast with Cherry Sauce, Chicken Breasts Oscar, Cumin Rice, Crème De Menthe Brownies and Kahlua Fondue. Traditional Favorites also include: Baklava, Mexican Casserole, Yorkshire Pudding, Chocolate Cakes, Strawberry Pie and Cheesecake. I've rarely seen a cookbook filled with such a wide variety of cultural and regional favorites. The selections are tempting, imaginative and adventurous. I feel very fortunate to have found a cookbook that is not only highly collectible, but has recipes I remember from when I lived in the South. If you enjoy Southern cooking, this will be a very exciting find! Purchasing this cookbook helps to support childcare centers, art museums, teachers, emergency shelters and other projects and activities by the Junior League of Cobb-Marietta, Inc. ~The Rebecca Review

Great cookbook for everyday cooking

I use this cookbook all the time! It has easy recipes that taste great. Everyone always raves about how I can make an ordinary meal taste wonderful. My secret is this cookbook. I have also given this cookbook to several friends who all agree that this is one cookbook you can't do without.
