I purchased Katherine's original book "I'll Have The Soup and Salad" and have used it frequently.  When I saw she had a new book, "Katherine's Southern Cooking" I immediately purchased it and already have a Hamburger Pie planned for dinner tonight.Katherine includes a lot of tips and advice along with her recipes that is a boon to those of us who are not as accomplished in the kitchen as she so obviously is.  In addition, she includes a bio in her book.  As it turns out, I was born and raised 65 miles from where she lives now so Southern Cooking is subject near and dear to my heart.  Going through the book last night, I found many recipes that were just like my mother fixed when I was growing up sans fast food.  When Katherine talked about cornbread and buttermilk, it brought back a lot of memories.  When we have cornbread, we always bake extra and my half has jalapenos in it.  The next day, I get the largest glass I can find and about half an onion, crumble the cornbread and add whole milk (We called it "sweet milk" back in the day.) and happily enjoy my meal eating the onion as if it were bread.Great job, Katherine..You brought back some fond memories.
