Publisher's Synopsis
When families from the American South gather around the dinner table, the meal is often preceded by the following interrogatory prompt: "who wants to turn thanks?" What we mean is: "will someone please step up and take the lead in thanking our Lord for the food that we are about to consume?" We are returning gratitude for the bountiful harvest before us. We are "turning thanks." In this cookbook, you will find a few of the many favorite recipes that the families of the Mt. Wesley Akin Nazarene Church in Southern Middle Tennessee turn thanks for on a regular basis. And you will learn a little about the church and our community along the way. So get out your pots, pans, and dishes. Polish up those forks, spoons, and knives. And bring your appetite. There's good eatin' and friendly folks waiting. Who wants to turn thanks?
