Cookbook Release Party!

After a week of relaxing for the eye, I had a week of being pretty busy with work.  I cooked for a longterm client on Wednesday, Thursday was dentist, a meal for Loving Meals Ministry and prep for cooking for a new client on Friday.  Yay for all clients! 

I was a little tired after working on Friday, but got home early enough to take a 20 minute rest, shower and head to the Ansley Mall Cook's Warehouse for the book release party. 

What book you ask?  Why Virginia Willis' new book:



The party was wonderful with food and drink, friends and family.  Virginia autographed many books and also read from the very personal forward.  

We had a choice of bourbon, bourbon with ice, bourbon with water or bourbon with Coke.  I sipped on a bourbon with water. 



There were appetizers, and yes this is a pork rind platter filled with pork rinds. 



There were sandwiches, salad, brownies and cookies.  Delicious! 



I was fortunate enough to be able to test some of the recipes while the book was in progress so I got to taste some recipes before I got the book.  The shrimp rillettes, the cheddar biscuits, the goat cheese caramel, wonderful.  I browsed through the book yesterday afternoon and can't wait to try many more recipes, the sweet potato grits really caught my eye!

It's a beautiful book by a beautiful person, so hurry and pick it up and enjoy the stories and recipes.
