Southern Plate Cookbook Update!
This sign was sent to be yesterday by Andrew Malcolm to congratulate me on finishing the book. It was made online but BOY did it make my day with a round of giggles!
This morning I turned in the manuscript for the Southern Plate Cookbook which is being published by Harper Studios, a division of Harper Collins. The book is a combination of stories, classic Southern recipes, and some of the most gorgeous photos of Southern food I’ve ever seen. I have worked with an amazing team in putting this book together and I am just about to burst with excitement because I want you to see it so badly!
This is YOUR Cookbook, put together by using your input on what you wanted to see, what recipes you cherished most, and what recipes have been lost that you want most to reclaim for your family. I did include some of the most popular ones on Southern Plate but also made sure to add several exclusive good old fashioned recipes as well – the ones I’ve been asked for the most since starting Southern Plate. I feel just like a child whose colored you a picture and can’t wait for you to get home so I can present it to you! Thank you SO MUCH for giving me this opportunity and for helping me to write this book.
It will be available for pre-order this summer and will be in all major bookstores by the fall. I have one more wish, to make the dream come true for me, I’d sure love to get to meet you! I hope to see you at a book signing once it’s out. I’ll post my schedule as soon as it’s finalized. If you’re a member of the Southern Plate Family, I owe you a hug!
*Note: My self published cookbook is no longer available. Thank you to everyone who purchased it and everyone who has been kind enough to ask if there are any more. I sure do appreciate it and feel confident that you’ll enjoy my new book even more!
I’d love to hear your comments and suggestions for where book signings should be held in the comments below!
Gratefully,
Christy 🙂
There is nothing more pleasant in life than to pass on to others what
one has learned for oneself.

My vote would be Leesburg,Florida. So glad I got your book last year since it’s no longer available! I feel like I know you and I’ve cooked a ton of your food! Good luck and congrats!
Leesburg would be close if you don’t pick Ocala FL… or Gainesville even. I would do either of these. Thanks for all you do!
Christie, please come to Sumter, SC or Florence, SC or Columbia, SC or Charleston, SC! I vote for anywhere in South Carolina actually! Can’t wait to get the new book.
I think you need to come to Montgomery. I would love to meet you.
I think it would be great if you came to Montgomery.
Congratulations on the book. I am anxiously awaiting it. Hooterville doesn’t have a book store.
I’d love to have a chance to meet and greet with you in Aiken, SC!! Books a Million is here and several smaller book stores. I read your blog daily, am just one of those that doesn’t post, lol. Love your blog and your recipes, congrats on the book!!!!!!! Can’t wait to get one!
I second the Aiken, SC vote!
I just can’t decide which area would be best. I live in small town with great public library.(Moulton) About 35-40 miles from Florence, Tuscumbia, Shoals area. About 60 miles from Madison/Huntsville Area. Just need handicap access. When will we know the name, so we can start asking and looking for it.
My Home here in West Texas…LOL…seriously…I would do it..
Dallas, Even Lubbock might be good but know the DFW are would be a good place….Congrats my southern friend…from your West Texas Fan…Karen Branscum
I live in Lubbock, Texas also and would love for you to come here. It is a central location for all of your Amarillo and Midland fans also!!
