Publisher's summary

Academy award-winning actress, producer, and entrepreneur Reese Witherspoon invites you into her world, where she infuses the Southern style, parties, and traditions she loves with contemporary flair and charm.

Reese Witherspoon’s grandmother Dorothea always said a combination of beauty and strength made Southern women “whiskey in a teacup”. We may be delicate and ornamental on the outside, she said, but inside, we’re strong and fiery.

Reese’s Southern heritage informs her whole life, and she loves sharing the joys of Southern living with practically everyone she meets. She takes the South wherever she goes with bluegrass, big holiday parties, and plenty of Dorothea’s fried chicken. It’s reflected in how she entertains, decorates her home, and makes holidays special for her kids - not to mention how she talks, dances, and does her hair (in this audiobook, you will learn Reese’s fail-proof, only slightly insane hot-roller technique). Reese loves sharing Dorothea’s most delicious recipes as well as her favorite Southern traditions, from midnight barn parties to backyard bridal showers, magical Christmas mornings to rollicking honky-tonks.

It’s easy to bring a little bit of Reese’s world into your home, no matter where you live. After all, there’s a Southern side to every place in the world, right?

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Reese, you are my spirit person!

Loved every word of this! I live in Florida but so many characteristics of southern living thrives everywhere. And the funniest part is many of the traditions and practices are done in my culture as a Mexican! I loved how animated she makes her book. I loved this so much, I went out and bought the book as well. (Just for all the recipes really)!

Highly recommended for a feel good book

The only problem I have with this book is that it’s way too short. I could listen to Reese Witherspoon for days. The book is very fun the recipes looks so delicious I haven’t tried them yet but I know I’m going to be cooking a lot more trying these out. Reese is the girl you want to have as your bestie! She is so sweet, down to earth, genuine and relatable, fun and The list goes on.

Such a cute book. Disappointed the pdf didn’t download. Going to look into it, as maybe I just don’t know where it is! Reese is adorable and thought this was light and fun!

Cute sharing of her family

Loved every minute

I loved this book. My family is not from the south but the values my mother shared with me were exactly what Reece speaks about. This is a great book for anyone raising children.
