Growing up Jackie was full of questions, most of which she gained the answers to through a good dose of home-grown wisdom from the grandparents who raised her. In her down-to-earth Southern style Jackie weaves true tales of learning how to decipher the code of "grown-folks" speech, the proper way to behave in a traditional Baptist church, as well as the pleasure of eating fresh cornbread, and so many more. These heart-warming and often humorous stories reveal the meaningful experiences that shaped her life, teaching her the importance of family and the power of love.
