"Here are the recipes and tricks I was taught by my Great-Granny, Granny, Nana, and Mama--the women who schooled me on the ways a Southern woman keeps a kitchen--and that I learned from twenty-plus years of competing on the baking circuit. Now you can bake up award-winning pies such as Upside-Down Apple Pie, fluffy Biscuits Like Nana Made, and irresistible treats like Soda Pop Cake and Classic Southern Lemon Bars--all so good they have made the rounds with the ladies at church, the bridge clubs, supper clubs, and mom groups for generations."
