Estelle's Forsythia

“Forsythia that I thought had been dozed into oblivion sprang up and misted the foundations with lemon icing I yearn for all winter.”

Estelle's Celebrates The Joy of Cooking

The Four Seasons

To be interested in the changing seasons is a happier state of mind than to be hopelessly in love with spring

The Homecoming

I would be willing to go around the world if I could come home in time to light the candles for dinner

The Family Dinner

All You Need Is Love

Cajun Fried Turkey

The Celebration

For any occasion, happy or sad, Southerners come together over food!

Garden Spaces

In my garden there is a large place for sentiment. My garden of flowers is also my garden of thoughts and dreams. The thoughts grow as freely as the flowers, and the dreams are as beautiful.

"We are the kind of Southern women who believe that it is impossible to arrive in a new place without a pair of shoes to match every possible change of clothes." Rebecca Wells, Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood

As for those grapefruit and buttermilk diets, I'll take roast chicken and dumplings.

~Hattie McDaniel

Catnapping

“Think what a better world it would be if we all, the whole world, had cookies and milk about three o'clock every afternoon and then lay down on our blankets for a nap.”
