内容简介

They re called Sweet Potato Queens， Steel Magnolias， Ya-Ya Sisters， and Southern Belles， but at heart they re just plain Grits-Girls Raised In The South! Now， the woman who turned this clever acronym into a symbol of Southern pride reveals the code behind the distinctive-and irresistible-style of the Southern woman. Equal parts sweet sincerity and sharp， sly humor， The Grits Guide to Life is chock-full of Southern charm: advice， true-life stories from honest-to-god "Grits，" recipes， humor， quotable wisdom， and more. Readers will learn vital lessons， including: how to eat watermelon in a sundress; how to drink like a Southern lady (sip . . . a lot); and the real meaning of PMS (Precious Moody Southerner). From the co-author s true story of inheriting Elvis s grandmother s pearls， to tips on tending your magnolia tree， this charming book is destined to become a bible for the Southern girl-whether born and bred， expatriated， or adoptive-and her many admirers.
