With 120+ recipes, full-color photos and packed with stories about growing up in the Lowcountry, it’s the perfect gift for your favorite ipad/kindle/mobipocket/microsoftreader-packin southern food lover!

In case you missed it…we wrote a story about Marilyn Monroe’s stuffing recipe for last Wednesday’s New York Times. We found the stuffing recipe in a new book called Fragments: Poems, Intimate Notes, Letters by Marilyn Monroe. The recipe was written in her own hand on a piece of note paper some time in the 1950s. So we tried it…and LOVED it. Click here for the full story!
