I can't wait until it's ready, so I can sit back with a cup of tea, a slice of this yumminess and a good book.
Thanks, Jen! You rock!

I love the Mitford books--I didn't know they had a cookbook. Enjoy your day in the kitchen with your boys!
I didn't know there was a cookbook for this series either. I'm definitely checking out her blog. And hope you enjoyed your yummieness!
Those Mitford books are among my favorites! I'm guessing that's a really great cookbook just based on the wonderful descriptions of food prevalent throughout the series. I'm going to go and check out your friend's blog now. Have a great weekend.

Heidi, you make me sound like I'm some sort of goddess, when my husband and children can swear that I am all too human and imperfect.
I'm glad the book arrived and can't wait to read about your adventures with southern cooking.
XO, Jen

The book looks so beautiful. I hope what came out of the oven was a resounding success too!
That looks like a great book. I would be excited about winning that too. Congrats!!!
