Southern barbecue and barbecue traditions are the primary focus of Cornbread Nation 2, our second collection of the best of Southern food writing. Barbecue is the closest thing we have in the United States to Europe's wines or cheeses; drive a hundred miles and the barbecue changes, writes John Shelton Reed. Indeed, no other dish is served a dozen different ways just between Memphis and Birmingham.In tribute to what Vince Staten calls the slowest of the slow foods, contributors discuss the politics, sociology, and virtual religion of barbecue in the South, where communities are defined by what wood they burn, what sauce they make, and what they serve with barbecue. Jim Auchmutey links barbecue to the success of certain Southern politicians; Marcie Cohen Ferris looks at kosher brisket; and Robb Walsh investigates why black cooks have been omitted from the accepted histories of Texas barbecue, despite their seminal role in its development.
Beyond the barbecue pit, John Martin Taylor sings the virtues of boiled peanuts, Calvin Trillin savors Cajun boudin, and Eddie Dean revisits his days driving an ice cream truck deep in the Appalachian Mountains. From barbecue to scuppernongs to popsicles, the forty-three newspaper columns, magazine pieces, poems, and essays collected here confirm that a bounty of good writing exists when it comes to good eating, Southern style.

Beautiful Quality Purse - Highly Recommend
So happy with this purchase and love the bag! It was packaged well and like a high priced item, in paper wrap and plastic & a box. It arrived in perfect condition. I was very surprised at the quality. The reviews were mixed but mostly good and I decided to give it a try.
It is a beautiful dark navy, elegant & well made. I was proud to carry this at my nephews wedding. It has a chain option, which I didn't use this time, and has lots of room for many items without being overly large. I have one of the largest cell phones with a case and it fit perfectly. I actually didn't have enough items to fill the bag, LOL. My husband asked me to carry his things and still had plenty of room.
It was perfect and I received compliments on it.
After the wedding I wrapped the purse back up it it's original package and stored it away for my next event. Highly recommend this product and will purchase again for sure!

Cute, servicable purse
Color: 1-rhinestone Black
Very cute little bag that I used for a black tie wedding. The size was big enough to carry a few needed items without being too small. For me, it was perfectly coordinated with my floor length black dress with rhinestone neckline. I actually got compliments on my dress and bag.

Pretty lil purse
Color: 1-rhinestone Camel, Color: 1-rhinestone Camel
Purse is pretty. I will be wearing for wedding. The only thing I noticed that was off was how sticky the diamond studded area was when I opened the package. It felt like the adhesive used to attach the diamond studded area was a cheap adhesive. It's not a crazy sticky feel its just very light in some areas. Im still gonna use it. It's wearable. Not concerning. Otherwise I would have given it a 5 star.

Fixing problem on GORGEOUS bag!
Color: 1-rhinestone Grey
I LOVE THIS BAG!! Ordered this bag in spite of reviews stating problems. The bag is somewhat stiff but still usable! My use of it will be sporadic, so that is not a big issue, and maybe the stiffness will loosen. The rhinestones' stickiness did, however, bother me. I have ordered Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear Nail Polish, Invisible formula from here at Amazon. I did some research on fixing the sticky problems for rhinestones, and this was the suggestion on several sites. Carefully polish the tops of rhinestones, not getting it on any other part of the bag, and allow the nail polish or top coat to dry completely. I will return to this review and report on the success of this fix. I feel that this will do the job but will come back and report. This bag was EXACTLY the color as shown, comes in so many colors, gives a glamorous look with an sophisticated feel. HOORAY!!! Rhinestones are no longer sticky! Got the Salley Hansen, laid some plastic wrap over the purse around the rhinestones and carefully put the polish on. Let it dry overnight, and no more stickiness. Storing it in an old pillow case with a couple of little packs of dehumidifiers that come with such things as jewelry. I think that may have solved the problem. I did use when I went to a wedding and got many compliments. Hope this helps others.
