Sommario/riassunto

"What is sweetness? It's life: Memories made in our parents' and grandparents' kitchens. Welcoming guests with an open heart. And it's food: Passing slices of old-fashioned Peach Buttermilk Pie around the table. Greeting kids after school with Chocolate Chip Dream Bars. Laughing together over glasses of cold Sweet Tea on the front porch. Christy Jordan is the doyenne of Southern cooking for a new generation. Talk about soul-satisfying: Love at First Bite Brown Sugar Bars. Icebox Oatmeal Cookies. Gooey Cherry Bars. Mama Reed's Jam Cake. Chocolate Chess Pie. Plus decadent ice cream toppings, refreshing fruit salads, candies (including three kinds of fudge!), spiced nuts, floats, punches, and more. Life is sweet--cultivate it, savor it, share it, celebrate it.
