Southern Cooking

Well, I finished my current read, The Help. It's going on my top 20 all-time-favorites-list!!! The characters left quite an impression on me, and I find myself looking at Southern history with new eyes... This story took place in Mississippi in the 1960's (even though many folk's mindsets were still stuck in the 30's.)

I dedicate this dish to Skeeter, Celia, and sweet Ablene.

Shrimp & Grits (from America's Test Kitchens)

And for Minny, Chocolate Cake of course (if you read the book you'd understand, hehe.) And, if you haven't read it-start now!

Wait, I haven't finished icing it yet! 
Chocolate on Chocolate = Heaven on earth.
