Publisher's summary

Academy award-winning actress, producer, and entrepreneur Reese Witherspoon invites you into her world, where she infuses the Southern style, parties, and traditions she loves with contemporary flair and charm.

Reese Witherspoon’s grandmother Dorothea always said a combination of beauty and strength made Southern women “whiskey in a teacup”. We may be delicate and ornamental on the outside, she said, but inside, we’re strong and fiery.

Reese’s Southern heritage informs her whole life, and she loves sharing the joys of Southern living with practically everyone she meets. She takes the South wherever she goes with bluegrass, big holiday parties, and plenty of Dorothea’s fried chicken. It’s reflected in how she entertains, decorates her home, and makes holidays special for her kids - not to mention how she talks, dances, and does her hair (in this audiobook, you will learn Reese’s fail-proof, only slightly insane hot-roller technique). Reese loves sharing Dorothea’s most delicious recipes as well as her favorite Southern traditions, from midnight barn parties to backyard bridal showers, magical Christmas mornings to rollicking honky-tonks.

It’s easy to bring a little bit of Reese’s world into your home, no matter where you live. After all, there’s a Southern side to every place in the world, right?  

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

A Handbook to the South

I’ve always been a huge fan of Reese Witherspoon. This lovely book, with insights into her family history made her even more endearing. Enjoyed Ms Witherspoon’s explanation of her Southern heritage and the traditions that she continues.

Whiskey in a Tea Cup

I grew up in Houston, Texas with my teen years in Brenham, Texas. My mother’s family is from Mississippi and Alabama, where we would spend many summers. Some of my best memories are from my summers in Mississippi! Growing up in the South is a big gift full of love, laughter and kindness...Not to mention great food!
Thank you Reese Witherspoon for bringing me down memory lane! ❤️

Fun

Easy read that captures the essence of my childhood growing up Southern. Sun tea. Casseroles. New Easter dresses. Fun hearing her stories. I had a grandmother like hers too.
