"Will surely tickle a Southern funny bone . . . you can cook and eat like a Southerner, even if you were not born one."
-Woodbury (TN) Cannon Courier on Y'all Come Back, Now: Recipes and Memories
"Generations apart seem to like Hill Country Cookin' and Memoirs. Older folks appreciate the memories it brings back, while younger readers get some thought-provoking insights into the lives their parents and grandparents often led. People of all ages seem to feel the love that Ibbie shares for her family and the love she puts forth through her cooking."
-Tennessee Magazine
Ibbie Ledford, a native of Tennessee, has written memoirs to promote the lively stories and delicious foods of Hill Country life. Ledford worked with her son to gather the bits and pieces of her stories and recipes, which were collected to produce her first book, Hill Country Cookin' and Memoirs, published by Pelican. Her second book, Y'All Come Back, Now: Recipes and Memories, also published by Pelican, is a collection of not only her favorite food but also anecdotes about the people in the Hill Country. Ledford wrote Stories from the Hearts of Two Grandmas, by Pelican, with her sister, Johnnie Countess.
