Catalyst: "The Church Ladies' Celestial Suppers & Sensible Advice" from the Penguin Group, by Brenda Rhodes Miller, introduction by Dorothy I. Height, 188 pages, paperback, c. 2005, $16.95
[Source: The Penguin Group] In the Church Ladies' Divine Desserts, Brenda Rhodes Miller, a bona fide church lady herself, collected recipes and sweet recollections from churches across the country. Now, in the Church Ladies' Celestial Suppers & Sensible Advice, she returns with recipes for all courses and for every occasion. Among the many appetizers, there are four distinctive but equally delicious recipes for deviled eggs -- and one for Holy Ghost Party Meatballs. For the main course, readers will love The-Pastor's-in-Trouble Meatloaf -- and the story of how it got its name. And for special occasions, what could be better than Wedding Punch with Frozen Sugared Rose Petals? Here are more that 200 recipes for everything from salads to sides to seafood -- all made from scratch -- without an instant mix in sight. And this delightful treasury offers not only crowd-pleasing recipes, but timeless words of wisdom on mealtime manners and just about everything else on God's green earth.
