I have just finished reading In the Sanctuary of Outcast: A Memoir (P.S.) by Neal White. Neal is from Gulfport, MS and was Publisher of Mississippi Coast Magazine in late '80's early '90's. In fact I was featured in the Oct./Nov. '91 issue in the feature article COAST COOKS with the caption "Creative Cook With a Casual Flair", thanks to Susan Bosco. I do not know Neal personally but we have alot of friends in common since I went to Ole Miss with people who grew up in Gulfport and during our sailboat racing days DH and I spent "bunches" of time at Gulfport Yacht Club. Now back to the book---Neal was sentenced to prison for bank fraud (kiting checks)---he plead guilty--no trial--and Walter Gex sentenced him to 18 months to the Leper Colony/Federal Prison in Carville, LA. The book is very well written and a "good read". I recommend it highly and again it reminds us "until you have walked in those shoes"-----and I'm not talking about just Neal's!!
Zaza; Excellent post! Just “discovered” your blog, so not even sure it’s still active! I looked for “Adrienne’s” which I have been making for over 40 years, and, as I lost my Cotton Country to an ungrateful borrower, needed to locate recipe on FB, etc. I have been piecing this favorite together from memory and needed a refresh!
