Biography & Autobiography. Cooking & Food. Performing Arts. Nonfiction. HTML:Academy Awardâ??winning actress, producer, and entrepreneur Reese Witherspoon invites you into her world, where she infuses the southern style, parties, and traditions she loves with contemporary flair and charm.
/> Reese Witherspoon's grandmother Dorothea always said that a combination of beauty and strength made southern women "whiskey in a teacup." We may be delicate and ornamental on the outside, she said, but inside we're strong and fiery.

Reese's southern heritage informs her whole life, and she loves sharing the joys of southern living with practically everyone she meets. She takes the South wherever she goes with bluegrass, big holiday parties, and plenty of Dorothea's fried chicken. It's reflected in how she entertains, decorates her home, and makes holidays special for her kidsâ??not to mention how she talks, dances, and does her hair (in these pages, you will learn Reese's fail-proof, only slightly insane hot-roller technique). Reese loves sharing Dorothea's most delicious recipes as well as her favorite southern traditions, from midnight barn parties to backyard bridal showers, magical Christmas mornings to rollicking honky-tonks.

It's easy to bring a little bit of Reese's world into your home, no matter where you live. After all, there's a southern side to every place in the world,… (altro)

I’m in a celebrity memoir phase this year. This is probably 1.5 stars. The writing is nothing special, and it was incredibly fluffy. I could’ve learned all of this from Wikipedia. It felt like something her PR team forced her to write. ( )

This is a recipe-filled story of southern life told with humor and candor. Try the recipes. Enjoy the flavors and stories of growing up in the southern U.S. ( )

~random thoughts~

The South is THE BESTEST!!!1

Seriously this book is a huge collection of lists about, mostly, "the south" and how to be a proper lady/host/guest/cook/whatever.

Very awkward attempt to advocate about the non-racism of THE SOUTH by listing the accomplishments of black women and men.

But OF COURSE she would love gender reveal parties.

"You don't have to lose your femininity to be a strong woman."

A possible summary could be the quote "there's a time and a place for chewing gum."

OF COURSE she monograms stuff.

God damn this really feels like it was written in a past decade, I cannot imagine how a modern woman can be so clueless.

Don't mind the recipes, it'll be fun to try them out. I cringe at the photos that look like ones from a catologue for expensive furniture.

All in all, a very rich-and-white kind of book. I would expect this from Goop, but Witherspoon? I hoped for better. ( )

A truly warm and charming book.

Reese (I feel like we're on a first name basis now...) tells about growing up Southern. The food, music, parties and traditions. She shares personal stories about everyone from her grandparents to her own children, and everyone in between. A really down-to-earth book about living true to her roots.
