Beautiful bookBy S. GilgoffHaving watched (and loved) Whitney Miller on the first season of MasterChef, I just had to buy this book. It's beautifully done with quality paper and lovely photos. So far have made her Oven Fried Catfish (I substituted Tilapia and it worked just fine) and her Buttermilk Pan Fried Chicken which was, without a doubt, the best chicken to ever come out of MY kitchen. I am certainly no chef and consider myself to be an average cook, so I really appreciate her detailed explanations on how to make these dishes come out a winner. Even if you didn't watch the TV show, there is much to be gained from this 'cookbook'. Also purchased the "MasterChef" cook book and although I haven't attempted any of the dishes yet, there are many I look forward to making.7 of 7 people found the following review helpful. Love it!By H2OAs a fan of Masterchef, I cheered Whitney on from the very beginning.

You are now part of a history and tradition that is known as The University of Southern Mississippi. With 100-plus years of educating students, approximately 14,500 current students, 2,100 full-time faculty and staff, and 130,000 alumni from campuses in Hattiesburg and on the Gulf Coast, the University is something more than special. You are responsible for carrying on this tradition. The purpose of this manual is to give you the opportunity to learn about Southern Miss’ history and traditions so you can be aware of our proud past and play a significant role in helping take Southern Miss to the top! The defining characteristics of Southern Miss are her Southern charm and friendliness. In the 1963-64 edition of The Drawl, the student handbook of the time, Dr. William D. McCain, fifth president of The University of Southern Mississippi, wrote the following: The warmth of the friendly spirit on the campus of The University of Southern Mississippi rivals that of the September sun. This warmth of friendliness grows out of the fact that here at Southern, we all “belong,” and you will feel it because now that you have joined us, you “belong” too. It grows also out of the individual friendliness that you will see and hear in the friendly smiles and pert “hellos” you exchange as you go about the campus.
