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.

Congrats,

St. Simon’s Island would be great but Gainesville Georgia would be great too!
Please come to Michigan, in particular either Grand Rapids or the Detroit area!
Darlin’ Christy, I’d love it if you were able to come on up to our homestead in Mountain View so we can sip some sweet tea and dine on something delightful but if you can’t, then I’ll understand if we can only meet up in Springfield, Missouri. 😉 A big ol’ congratulations on finishing up the cookbook from me and mine and wishes for a non-stop flow of blessings to you and yours! xoxo
How about Greenville or Spartanburg SC. Lots of small towns around that would love to come see you! Thanks for the great ideas– I just made the M&M cookies with my kids and they loved them! Me too!
