Laura Jeanne Reese Witherspoon is an American actress, producer, and entrepreneur. After all, there’s a southern side to every place in the world, right?
It’s easy to bring a little bit of Reese’s world into your home, no matter where you live. 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 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 these pages, you will learn Reese’s fail-proof, only slightly insane hot-roller technique). She takes the South wherever she goes with bluegrass, big holiday parties, and plenty of Dorothea’s fried chicken. Reese’s southern heritage informs her whole life, and she loves sharing the joys of southern living with practically everyone she meets. Reese Witherspoon’s grandmother Dorothea always said that 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.
