Around the Southern Table: Coming Home to Comforting Meals and Treasured Memories Hardcover - 2012 - 1st Edition

Rebecca Lang is a professionally trained chef, a lifelong Southerner, a food writer and blogger, the author of three cookbooks, a contributing editor for Southern Living and MyRecipes.com and a Southern cooking expert featured weekly on the nationally syndicated TV show Daytime, which airs in 85 million households.
She learned to cook at her grandmother's heels, apprenticed with legendary Southern chef Nathalie Dupree and earned a culinary arts degree from Johnson and Wales University. She worked as an assistant food editor for Oxmoor House in Birmingham, Ala., before returning to Athens, Georgia.
Her Quick-Fix Southern (Andrews McMeel, March 2011) went into a second printing even before its official launch. Her previous books include Mary Mac's Tea Room (Looking Glass Books, 2005) and Southern Entertaining for a New Generation (Cumberland House, 2004). Her blog, rebeccalangcooks.com, has been featured on the James Beard Foundation's Delights and Prejudices and twice in the Food News Journal's Best of the Blogs. Her writing has appeared in numerous magazines and newspapers, including The Atlanta Journal Constitution.
She serves her own family at the same dining room table where her precious grandmother, Tom, enjoyed decades of meals with her ten siblings.
