Growing Up Southern, Fitzgerald, GA
Growing Up Southern - Introduced on June 4, 2019
This book opens the window on a pure Southern lifestyle in a disappearing era of manners, grace, and hospitality. It is an entertaining, humorous, and nostalgic tribute to family, friends, football, and food in a rural South Georgia community. In the brushstrokes of her colorful words, along with photographs and recipes, Lydia Jay Mason has painted the portrait of a tradition that may soon be gone but never forgotten.
The book has been on Amazon's Top 100 Books of Southern US Cooking, Food and Wine and Culinary
Biographies and Memoirs several weeks. The book was born of a desire for my grandchildren to know what life was like growing up and to learn about the numerous recipes passed down through generations to me. It is a book of love for a by gone era.
