With its lush gardens, stately town houses, and sprawling
plantations, Savannah is the epitome of old Southern style, and who
better to give you the grand tour than Paula Deen, the city's most
famous resident and anointed Queen of Southern Cuisine?
In this gorgeous, richly illustrated book, Paula Deen shares a full
year of Southern living. Whether it's time to put out your best
china and make a real fuss, or you're just gathering for some sweet
tea on the porch at dusk, Savannah style is about making folks feel
welcome in your home. With the help of decorator and stylist
Brandon Branch, you'll learn how to bring a bit of Southern charm
into homes from Minnesota to Mississippi. For each season, there
are tips on decorating and entertaining. In the spring, you'll
learn how to make the most of your outdoor spaces, spruce up your
porch, and make your garden inviting. In the summer, things get
more casual with a dock party. Sleeping spaces, including, of
course, the sleeping porch, are the focal point of this chapter. In
the fall, cooler weather brings a return to more formal
entertaining in the dining room, and in the winter, attention
returns to the hearth, as Paula and her neighbors put out their
best silver and show you how they celebrate the holidays.
Paula "loves "getting a peek at her neighbors' parlors, so she's
included photographs of some of Savannah's grandest homes. From the
vast grounds of Lebanon Plantation to the whimsically restored
cottages on Tybee Island, you'll see the unique blend of old-world
elegance and laid-back hospitality that charmed Paula the moment
she arrived from Albany, Georgia, with nothing but two hundred
dollars and a pair of mouths to feed. And she isn't shy about
giving you a window into her own world, either. From her farmhouse
kitchen to her luxurious powder room, you'll see how Paula lives
when she's not in front of the camera.
Packed with advice and nostalgia, "Paula Deen's Savannah Style
"makes it easy to bring gracious Southern living to homes north and
south of the Mason-Dixon Line.
