camping trip, and a family dinner to an ice cream social,
there are recipes to delight any gathering.
Throw a down-home Birthday Bash with Beer-in-the-Rear

real Southern Fried Chicken and Buttermilk Corn Bread. And
comfort foods like Quick Crab Stew, Shrimp and Wild Rice
Casserole, and Black Bottom Pie are soul-satisfying dishes
that warm the heart and soothe the spirit. There are also
recipes for refreshing cocktails and beverages, from the
Southern traditional favorites, like Plantation Iced Tea
and Mint Juleps, to Lemonade and Hot Cranberry Cider.
