Review Quotes

"For this warm, accessible, economical collection of comfort foods, Brown, aka the Food Network's Delicious Miss Brown, digs into all parts of her roots: as a southern Gullah Geechee woman, as a Christian, and as a transplant struggling to make it financially in the big city...Brown's recipes form a solid base for new home chefs, anyone craving a taste of their southern roots, and folks who grew up hearing "You got McDonald's money" and know that mom was right and homecooked is better." -- Heather Booth, Booklist
