5.0 out of 5 stars One of the Best, March 14, 2001
By Catherine A. Watson (Georgetown, CO United States) - See all my reviews
I am a yankee but sure do want to be a southerner after reading this cookbook. The recipes are so easy and not all need exotic ingredients but easy to find items at the local grocery store. The sidebars are very entertaining. I hope to host my first catered party for friends in the spring. This is one cookbook that will be out on the kitchen counter all the time.

5.0 out of 5 stars The perfect gift for family and friends who entertain, August 31, 1999
Southern Scrumptious is clearly the product of a skilled cook, gracious entertainer and practical teacher who excels in communicating to the user. The recipes are outstanding, and when the advice is followed carefully, one begins to develop those skills which the author obviously has mastered.

5.0 out of 5 stars 'Southern Scrumptious' is just that!, February 16, 2004
By "ggm3mc" (Decatur, Alabama) - See all my reviews
If you are looking for a recipe book with fail proof recipes for any ocassion, this is the book. Betty Simms makes having a party easy with her delicious recipes and simple ideas. One of the most hectic things about any party is finding the right menu and then pulling everything together- this book will do the trick. There is not one recipe or idea that is not wonderful (we've tried them all)-- use this book for your next party and everyone will be talking about what a wonderful cook and hostess you are! Betty has other books out and they are all just as excellent!
