Recipes are like stories; they can change from person to person.  Everyone has their idea of how a recipe should be, even

though it may have changed from the original.  We will never know the true author of the original recipe, regardless of

what some may say.  That's why I go back and look through the oldest cookbooks that I can find.  Sometimes it's not the

recipe in the books that I find, but the tiny pieces of handwritten recipes and newspaper articles that are stuck within

the pages.  That's where the real story is, finding those simple Southern recipes.      -Mac
