After a few glasses of wine, heartbroken and unmoored, Emily - an avid cook and professional food writer - poured her heart out on Facebook.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe next morning she woke up with an awful hangover and a feeling she'd made a terrible mistake - only to discover she had more friends than she knew, many of whom invited her to come visit and cook with them while she put her life back together. Thus began the Comfort Food Tour. Searching for a way forward, Emily travels the country, cooking and staying with relatives and friends.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHer wonderfully idiosyncratic family comes to life in these pages, all part of the rich Southern story in which past and present are indistinguishable, food is a source of connection and identity, and a good story is often preferred to a not-so-pleasant truth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBut truth, pleasant or not, is what Emily Nunn craves, and with it comes an acceptance of the losses she has endured, and a sense of hope for the future. In the salty snap of a single Virginia ham biscuit, in the sour tang of Great-Grandmother's Mean Lemon Cake, Nunn experiences the healing power of comfort food-and offers up dozens of recipes for the wonderful meals that saved her life.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Winstones","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":35022633762969,"sku":"9781451674224","price":15.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0423\/0240\/6809\/products\/9781451674224.jpg?v=1594324396","url":"https:\/\/winstonebooks.pro\/products\/9781451674224","provider":"Winstone's Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
