Good Southern Cookin'

I watched Fried Green Tomatoes tonight on TBS. I hadn't seen it in years and now I don't know why. This is a great movie! I know, I know...the first thought many have when they hear the title of this movie is "chick flick", but let me tell you it is much more than that!! It is a story of love (and love lost), Southern-livin', racism and of course good Southern cookin'! It's female lead is a Huckleberry Finn-type character and the stories that are told are exciting, with not a dull moment in the whole movie (except the woman's group when they are told to look "at themselves" in the mirror - if you've seen the movie you know what I mean). Anyway, if you have not seen the movie, watch it! If you have seen it, watch it again. Better yet, read the book. They are almost always better.
