A Great Coffee Table Book!

This weekend I took the boys to the library to get a new stack of books for this last week before school starts and grabbed a few for myself. I'm going to buy a copy of one to have on hand...it was that good!

Paula Deen's Savannah Style

Paula Deen has always been my go-to girl for finding southern recipes that are hard to find elsewhere, but beyond that I didn't really know a whole lot about her. After reading through this book, I think we would get along fabulously! Not only is she just a beautiful lady (I just pray my hair will gray like that!), but I just love her accent as well. The book is written just like she talks:) I'd love to meet her. We both grew up in small towns in GA, had only boys, moved to the low country...her Savannah, me to Charleston... and felt like we'd moved home.

This book could be titled Low Country Style with Paula Deen, because it's not just Savannah style. It does a fantastic job at not only describing what makes up Savannah style, but also gives you great ways to incorporate it into your home by Brandon Branch. The photography is just fantastic as well.

Well, there's a little book review for you!
It's just a quick Sunday hello from me. Hope you're having a wonderful weekend!

  3. I ordered the book earlier this summer and was recently looking for it but find it at the house...then on recent visit to daughter's home there it was! Sneaky little girl!!! She loves Paula Deen too!
