Edna Lewis was one of the greatest and most influential chefs in American history. An African-American woman who rose from humble beginnings, she became famous for reviving the almost forgotten world of refined Southern cooking. The Edna Lewis Cookbook was her first book, published in 1972, and contains over 100 recipes, arranged in menu form and organized according to the season of the year.

Edna Lewis was recently honored with the issuance of a postal stamp by the US Post Office. She is renowned as one of the greatest American chefs and as an African-American woman who almost single handedly revived a forgotten world of refined Southern cooking. Another celebrated American chef, James Beard, remarked: “Edna Lewis makes me want to go right into the kitchen and start cooking.” Lewis won many industry awards and was often referred to as “the Grande Dame of Southern Cooking” and the “South’s answer to Julia Child.” Lewis (1916-2006) also had a remarkable life story. She was born and grew up in rural Virginia in an area called Freetown. She learned to cook from an extended family that included grandparents who had been enslaved. The Edna Lewis Cookbook, Lewis’s first book, published in 1972, contains over 100 recipes, arranged in menu form and organized according to the season of the year: Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Christmas. With its focus mostly although not exclusively on Southern food, it began the revival of true Southern cooking. Lewis went on to publish three more books: The Taste of Country Cooking (1976), In Pursuit of Flavor (1988), and The Gift of Southern Cooking, co-authored with Scott Peacock (2003). Her menus and recipes were featured in a variety of publications, including the New York Times, the New York Times Magazine, the Washington Post, Gourmet, Food & Wine, Cook’s, House & Garden, and Redbook, among others. This edition of The Edna Lewis Cookbook marks the 100th Anniversary of Miss Lewis’s birth. Evangeline Peterson studied with Edna Lewis and assisted her in compiling The Edna Lewis Cookbook

I recently purchased the ZHEM Valet Tray for Men in Dark Gray, and I couldn't be happier with this product. It's become an indispensable part of my daily routine and home décor. The design and craftsmanship of this tray are outstanding. The dark gray color is elegant and complements my furniture perfectly. It's not just a valet tray; it's also a decorative piece that adds a touch of sophistication to my nightstand and dresser. The size (8x8x1.75 inches) is ideal for holding my daily essentials like my watch, perfume, keys, and even napkins. I appreciate the versatility - it serves as a decorative piece, an organizer, and a functional tray all in one! The quality is top-notch, and it feels sturdy and well-made. It's also easy to clean, which is a big plus. Overall, the Tray has exceeded my expectations. It's a stylish and functional addition to my décor, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a versatile and attractive tray for their home. Five stars! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Super cute landing space for keys
Color: White 1 Pack, Size: 8" x 8" x 1.8", Color: White 1 Pack, Size: 8" x 8" x 1.8"
I always have trouble finding my keys and so it’s been very helpful to have a dedicated spot to easily throw them in when I get home. At first I thought it would be too big but it’s the perfect size for two wallets and keys, and it’s good quality albeit a bit expensive. The gold isn’t too shiny either, it’s a nice touch and it really reduces the look of clutter on your surfaces and helps it look more organized. It also doesn’t slip around.
