Constance Owens shares a lifetime of family recipes---both old and new----passed along from mothers, grandmothers, aunts, sisters, friends, and co-workers. Recipes come with a short story about the traditions behind the recipe and the people associated with the breaking of the bread. "I wanted a place my children can go to find all the comfort foods from their childhood, " says Owens. "A place they can go to find out how to prepare even the simplest item.....like sweet tea or butter beans." Dedicated to her children, From My Table to Yours is full of classic southern recipes as well as dishes collected from friends from other countries sprinkled in the mix.
