Many people journal or keep diaries, but Jody has recorded menus for fifty years and remembers those whom she has served with great joy!

Produktbeschreibung
Many people journal or keep diaries, but Jody has recorded menus for fifty years and remembers those whom she has served with great joy! Reviewing those menus, the author shares stories of guests; some funny, some poignant, some sad, and all uplifting. Sharing some of the menus, and a few recipes, she uses metaphors related to ranch life and rodeo stories. Stories include the night of a sliding chicken, the dreadful moment that she showed up without The Family Favorite and the day that the Methodists, Baptists and an Atheist appeared at her door with comfort food and other treats. Included are family favorite recipes and how they came to be, plus cooking tips and planning ideas which are woven into each chapter. An entire chapter on planning and table setting ideas gives permission for things to be imperfect, yet still wonderful and even memorable. As one reader said, "Reading these stories makes me want to invite myself to your house, eat a pimento cheese sandwich and hear more stories."

Autorenporträt
Jody Westbrook Bergman is a learner, an author, and a collector of menus. She loves to cook and open the house to welcome visitors from near and far. Gathering menus and stories has been her way of remembering her life for the last fifty years. Jody's been a teacher, a principal, central office administrator, college professor, and Executive Director of Learning Forward-TX. Jody is the author of Creating the Capacity for Change and has taught courses in leadership development and constructive change in education across the US and in Canada. She lives in Roanoke, Texas with her husband, Mike and their horse, Roanie. She and Mike are very active in their church. Jody has been a member of a learning community called the Star Learners for 25 years. Taking turns designing and facilitating each other's learning, the group has been an integral part of Jody's continuing interest in learning about anything and everything. Jody and Mike love to "waltz across Texas," literally and figuratively, going to old Dance Halls to enjoy some boot scootin' and C & W music. On their journeys, they stop to visit old friends and new steak places. Jody's watch never has to tell her to STAND. She practices yoga twice a week, hits the gym for cardio and strength training twice a week and counts dancing with Mike as both exercise and fun. As one reader said, "Reading these stories makes me want to invite myself to your house, eat a pimento cheese sandwich and hear more stories."
