This is a very funny book that is not exactly a cookbook but does have some good-sounding recipes in it. It's the humor of a southern gal and her friends, The Sweet Potato Queens.

Again, I want - I NEED - to be a SPQ. Following these recipes and financial tips, I hope to someday achieve my goal. Truly funny; wonderful FATTENING recipes (and I do plan to try a number of them); and the financial tips are just no brainers! We can all learn from this group!

I have this cookbook and love it! The Sweet Potato Queens are hilarious and the author (Jill Conner Browne) includes much of that same kind of humor all through the book ("You know, some people like to say 'Less is more' but we are just the kind of girls who believe more is more - and also better"). I have made several of the recipes and they have all become family favorites. The one we like most is "Death Chicken" made from simple ingredients (rice, soup, chicken, bacon) but tastes -incredibly- good. And Fried Dill Pickles...the recipe is two pages long and so funny, my ribs hurt from laughing. Then there is Hershey Bar Pie...OMG.

You guys are missing out if you don't get a copy.

This is not my kind of book. The other women in my book group enjoyed it so perhaps its because I'm from TX and the banter/humor is too close to home.

Love, love, loved this book. Not only was it hilariously funny and made me laugh out loud, there are some good recipes in it! This is one I won't be sending back out.
