Book Description

This book is the accumulation of recipes that came mainly from the kitchen of a woman that was dear to my heart and that is my Aunt Mary Ellen Macon. Mary Ellen resided in the South, West Point, Mississippi. At a very young age she learned how to cook. As time passed, Ms. Macon became well known for her cooking. She would cook at parties and for other events. She also was the caretaker of the mother of the President of Coca-Cola. Mary Ellen was a master in the kitchen when it came to cooking. I can remember when she would come to visit our family how she would prepare the meals without even having to measure out the ingredients. She had that special touch. One of my favorites was when she baked dinner rolls. Her rolls were so light that would melt in your mouth. When she cooked a meal she always had a dessert to go with it. You could gain ten (10) pounds in a week from eating her food. Because of her passion for cooking this book is written in remembrance of her.
