Grit in Training?

I went to Barnes and Noble on my lunch to get my mom a book for mothers day. Of course I couldn't help browsing for myself and I came across a book I couldnt pass up.

What do Sweet Potato Queens, Steel Magnolias, Ya-Ya Sisters, and Southern Belles have in common? They're Grits®—Girls Raised In The South!

Now you, too, can benefit from the unspoken rules, rich traditions, and distinctive style of the Southern woman. Like a tall glass of Grandma's lemonade, The Grits® Guide to Life is sweet, sharp, and chock full of Southern charm. Inside these pages you'll find advice, tradition, recipes, humor, quotable wisdom, and vital lessons such as:

-- How to eat watermelon in a sundress
-- How to drink like a Southern lady (sip…a lot)
-- How to say darlin' like you mean it

From tending your heirloom iron skillet to avoiding a Southern girl's deadly sins (bad hair, bad manners, and bad blind dates), this handbook is a bible of Southern style for the Grits® girl in all of us.
