From thee concert hall to the kitchen, from the ballet to the board room, from the art gallery to the factory, from the theatre stage to the cotton fields, from the arts festivals and schools and libraries to the small cottage lit by the glow of television, Tupelo resounds with the sounds of a great performance, a magnificent symphony whose varied melodies blend together in perfect harmony. This cookbook is a part of that symphony, a coming together of Tupelo"s many different performers to bring you the best in Southern cooking. Each page sings its own song; each section dances to its own rhythm. Catch the beat; join the song and above all, please your audience with a symphony of good cooking. The Tupelo Symphony League wishes you a great performance in your kitchen and many encores.
