Thank You: Jeanne, This Reminds me of a Book I Just Finished!

Misc.
Jeanne,

Thanks for posting, I like your recipes because you have always just made them and I like your reviews and "tweaks".

This made me think of a book I just finished called "The Secret Life of Bees" by Sue Monk Kidd. There is a character named Rosaleen who makes smothered chicken, just the name alone makes me hungry!

I really recommend this book to you and anyone else who reads this post. It is one of those ones where you are upset when you run out of pages to read!

Here are some of my favorite books:

Fall on Your Knees: Anne Marie McDonnell
Daughter of Fortune: Isabel Allende
Portrait in Sepia: Isabel Allende
Prodigal Summer: Barbara Kingsolver
Fortune's Rocks: Anita Shreve
Sea Glass: Anita Shreve
Gap Creek: Robert Morgan
Big Stone Gap Trilogy: Adriana Trigiani

These are all newer books that are page turners for me.

I need some new material does anyone have any to suggest?

Take care!
