• Free Author Monthly Events sponsored by Libraries for Kids, Int’l.: Author Mary Martha Greene will discuss her book The Cheese Biscuit Queen Tells All: Southern Recipes, Sweet Remembrances, and a Little Rambunctious Behavior
Some Southern cooks keep their prized family recipes under lock and key, but not Mary Martha Greene. Why? She says few things can truly be kept secret in the South, and recipes, like cheese biscuits, are meant to be shared. That’s why she’s the “Cheese Biscuit Queen.” In The Cheese Biscuit Queen Tells All, Greene, a South Carolinian and former lobbyist, pairs tried-and-true recipes for dishes like country ham scones, Frogmore stew dip, shrimp and corn pie, and lemon pound cake with stories from her corner of the South. The book opens with the famous cheese biscuit recipe, complete with family secrets, and the pages that follow brim with fabulous characters, antic-filled anecdotes, and recipes.

About the Book, A Special Kind of Heartache: Carr Jepson, Mongin Island’s amateur sleuth, and her friends are beginning to prepare for cooler days and fewer tourists. But things change quickly with the arrival of a girls’ trip vacationing at the cozy Rosemont Inn.
