About this product

Product Information

The New York Times bestselling Southern girls' guide to succeeding in life--with a foreword by Fannie Flag. They're called Sweet Potato Queens, Steel Magnolias, Ya-Ya Sisters, and Southern Belles, but at heart they're just plain Grits--Girls Raised in the South! Now, Deborah Ford, founder of Grits(R) Inc., reveals the code behind the distinctive--and irresistible--style of the Southern woman. Equal parts sweet sincerity and sharp, sly humor, The Grits Guide to Life is chock-full of Southern charm: advice, true-life stories from honest-to-god "Grits," recipes, humor, quotable wisdom, and more. Readers will learn vital lessons, including: how to eat a watermelon in a sundress; how to drink like a Southern lady (sip... a lot); and the real meaning of PMS (Precious Mood Southerner). This charming book is destined to become a bible for the Southern girl--whether born and bred, expatriated, or adoptive--and her many admirers. "Funny, wise, charming, and smart...Grits deserves a place on your shelf between Gone With the Wind and the Memphis Junior League cookbook, and I predict in the years to come it will be passed down to daughter along with the family silver and great-grandmother's lace doilies."--Fannie Flag, from her foreword to The Grits Guide to Life

  • GRITS guide to life

    I really loved this book. Being a Georgia girl raised by a hippie mother and a very Southern father, I figured I could brush up on some of the things that I thought I should know more about. I actually think this book is fairly accurate, and even learned a few things I hope to live up to. I've yet to purchase my own iron skillet, but that is a purchase I'm excited about making. I'll be sure to keep this book in the family, and pass it along to my daughter when the time comes. Recommended buy!!

  • Very clever and cute.

    I bought the book for a Southern Studies college class. It's a cute book just to read. If you're from the south, then you will be able to relate and laugh. Even if you are from the North it may provide an insight into the strange things southerners sometimes do. Even though it is a cute book, it can be looked at critically as done in the class and examined at a more serious level. There are even very good recipes throughout the book.

  • A must read

    What every Southern girl needs to read.
