Life's little challenges get a little easier --- and a lot less embarrassing --- when you know you're not the only one going through them. Here is a collection of stories about life with all it's sorrows, joys, fears, and hope. Told with warmth, ease and humor, these stories encapsulate the feeling of life in the new South, of growing up in the old South, working hard, making mistakes and finding our way. So grab a glass of iced tea, pull up a chair, and get ready to laugh, cry and recognize yourself and your own friends and family in these stories --- and, of course, learn why the biggest decisions should always be made with hot dogs.
