"I want to thank #TenSpeedPress for sending me a beautiful finished copy of the cookbook in exchange for an honest review. *All opinions are my own. #Partner<br/><br/>I have always thought of myself as a good baker.. I really really hadn’t reached my maximum capacity until I got this baking cookbook in my hands. I am all about breads, cakes, pastries, cookies.. well you get it. My dream has always been to be able to make my own at home. <br/><br/>The Good Book of Southern Baking has a ton of delicious recipes, and easy(ish) to follow instructions. I always have extra questions.. but when the baking goodness come out of the oven, all my questions and doubts went away.<br/><br/>And although many of the recipes consisted of ingredients that I already had in my pantry, most are very common and many would also be in every household pantry., there were some items that I couldn’t even find at my local grocery store. Sooo I had to improvise.. only in some cases though so it wasn’t a big turn off.<br/><br/>Overall a wonderful cookbook I will be referencing, and using time and time again. Especially during the cold season."
