Publisher Comments:

Well, if you want to be a Sweet Potato Queen, it's not enough to talk the talk and walk the walk, you also gotta eat the eats. And that's why Boss Jill has generously decided to share her finest Sweet Potato Queen recipes with women at large (so to speak). There's Jill's Chocolate Stuff, for instance, which Queen Wannabes will recall from The Sweet Potato Queens' Book of Love. And Pig Candy, which involves bacon, brown sugar, and, in a nod to culinary sophistication, chopped pecans (which Jill promises you can't even IMAGINE the goodness of). Plus, lots more laugh-out-loud anecdotes from Jill about the events that inspire the recipes as well as stuff like the annual Mal's St. Paddy's Parade (have you been?), Jill's adventures in mothering how she stumbled upon true love, and, as promised, sound financial planning. Tip number one: marry well.

With The Sweet Potato Queens' Big-Ass Cookbook (and Financial Planner), any woman can be a sequined stunner, and MAYBE even a Wannabe Wannabe Queen.

Synopsis:

Theyre wild, beloved, and all-around fabulous, but with the Sweet Potato Queens, therere just never enough good times—or enough good eats. Well, now all fabulous women everywhere can have their own mountains of royal fun and food, because bestselling author and Boss Queen Jill Conner Browne is revealing her big-ass top secret recipes—and the events that inspired them—in The Sweet Potato Queens Big-Ass Cookbook (and Financial Planner). And, of course, shes dishing up plenty of hilarious stories, including:

• Queenly adventures in mothering

•The tiniest bit of plastic surgery

• The all-true story of the Cutest Boy in the World

And, oh yes, as promised:

• Sound financial planning. Tip number one: Hope that Daddy lives forever.

The book is great and the recipes are fun to read.

But DON'T bother going to the Sweet Potato Queen Message Board. What you think is going to be fun is simply a group of horrible women acting like they are in junior high school. And Jill must think it is funny or she would do something about it.
