I read this book many years ago and laughed about the the topic of southern culture surrounding funerals and the food that goes along with it. I recently saw a copy at a thrift store and decided I would reread it.

Full of humor and interesting recipes and an interesting look at how southerners especially those in Mississippi view death, grief, and funerals. Full of real life examples gathered from the hometown of Greenville, MS.

This was amusing to read, but I'm glad I will never have to go to one of those funeral receptions.

This book was the gift from a dear friend of mine, my age who hails from Mississipi, that arrived in the mail shortly after my husband died. My friend said it made her laugh, and she knew I needed a laugh.That was in 2017, and i only now, four years later decided to read it and as I expected, I'm laughing. It's really kind of a memorial to certain kinds of Southern values, food, and people that I'm very familiar with, and most Southerners in my age group are - for others it may seem like quaint, rather ancient, history, but it's still fun to read, and the recipes are fantastic for those who actually cook and bake!… (meer)
