You are going to love this cookbook. Not only do you get great recipes that even the pickiest of men, like mine, will love but you get great stories. Who doesn't love to pick up a cookbook and look through the recipes and read fun stories by the author. Shellie has been one of my favorite people for years, and she just made me happy happy happy with this cookbook. She shares things in such a fun way. I can just see her face in my mind telling the stories as I read them. She is a beautiful person with incredible stories to tell. A 'real' storyteller! -Miss Kay Robertson from Duck Dynasty Hilarious sassy southern stories tucked between can't-wait-to-try-this recipes. . .some tried and true southern fare, others invented by Shellie herself, a true culinary artist. This girl knows good y'all. Particularly when it comes to what she calls the holy trinity of Southern cooking: chopped onion, bell pepper, and celery. I reckon the Trinity is the secret sauce of Shellie's Perfect Pea Topping Relish and a dozen other yumdillyicious marvels that make you want to slap your mama (one of Shellie's delightful colloquialisms I just might have to borrow!). A must-have for all belles and belle-wannabes! -Debora M. Coty, Humorist, Speaker, and Author of the Too Blessed to be Stressed Cookbook As a new wife and cook, I love how Mrs. Shellie keeps it real and simple while sharing her best cooking secrets with me! -Mary Kate Eacham Robertson, Wife of the Young and Beardless John Luke Robertson of A&E's Duck Dynasty With her trademark southern humor and wit, Shellie Rushing Tomlinson delivers a cookbook that will warm both your heart and your appetite. You might even forget to cook the delicious recipes as you'll get caught up in the stories, anecdotes, and beauty of the book itself. But don't forget to cook, because Shellie brings us the best of her own kitchen and farm in this collection of recipes and stories. If you get one cookbook this year, let it be this one! -Patti Callahan Henry, New York Times bestselling author of The Idea of Love We southerners love our stories and our food; we'll eat and talk most anywhere, but we do a fine job of bringing the two together over a crowded dinner table. In Hungry Is a Mighty Fine Sauce, Shellie Tomlinson takes food and stories to a whole NEW level. It's filled with funny stories about Shellie's family and friends. Who doesn't love the story about Lady, the holy ghost dog, and then there's one about Shellie, her BFF Rhonda, and a practical joke that occurred at 25,000 feet. With all those great stories there is also a host of yummy recipes, like Shellie's Mexican Lasagna, Mama's Chicken and Dressing, Holiday Hurt Yourself Bread, and Aunt Judy's Banana Nut Cake. And y'all, this is my favorite part-these recipes have ingredients I can find in my pantry and at my local grocery store. No obscure roots or unheard-of spice that you can only find in stores where they sell unicorn horns and fairy dust. Oh and the pictures-goodness, the pictures are gorgeous. Shellie combines flat out funny stories with mouthwatering recipes, and that makes this one of my favorite cookbooks-ever. I know what I'm getting everyone on my Christmas list this year! -Mary R Snyder, Author of God, Grace & Girlfriends: Adventures in Faith and Friendship and Authentic Girlfriends: Real Women Finding Real Faith
