Soul Food OdysseyIn the introduction to Soul Food Odyssey, Chef Stephanie Tyson describes her early feelings when people assumed her Sweet Potatoes restaurant was a "soul food" establishment. "Soul food was like the boxer George Foreman," she says. "He would stand there and go toe to toe. It wasn't pretty, but he got the job done, and you'd be on your butt. Southern food, on the other hand, was like Muhammad Ali a little prettier, and you'd still be on your butt I

In the introduction to Soul Food Odyssey, Chef Stephanie Tyson describes her early feelings when people assumed her Sweet Potatoes restaurant was a "soul food" establishment. "Soul food was like the boxer George Foreman," she says. "He would stand there and go toe-to-toe. It wasn't pretty, but he got the job done, and you'd be on your butt. Southern food, on the other hand, was like Muhammad Ali--a little prettier, and you'd still be on your butt I wanted Ali. I missed the connection that they were both great fighters. Once I got off my high horse, I wanted to know, from a culinary point of view, how do you make what is essentially castaway food into a 'cuisine'?" In Soul Food Odyssey, Tyson takes readers along on her journey back to find the food her grandmother called "sumntaeat." The recipes she shares include how to cook various parts of the pig from "the router to the tooter"; other meat dishes, including everything from stewed turkey wings and pot roast to a Low Country boil; what Tyson calls "stone soul sides," including crackling cornbread, hoecakes, and, of course, different kinds of greens; soups and stews including oxtail and fish head stew and "Everything in It Vegetable Soup"; and desserts "to sell your soul for." Along with the recipes come Tyson's comments, which reflect her biting wit as well as her deep appreciation of the food she has come to embrace.

Stephanie L. Tyson is a creative chef who has turned growing up in the South into the soul of her restaurant, Sweet Potatoes. Born in North Carolina, Tyson spent countless hours dreaming of the bright lights of anywhere else. But once she left to travel and cook around the world, she could not believe what a relief it was to come home again. Trained in culinary arts at Baltimore International College, Chef Tyson opened her award-winning restaurant with her partner, Vivi n Joiner, in 2003 in the downtown Arts District of Winston-Salem, where they live.

MVP of our Camping Trip
This net is unreal. We went camping and absolutely over filled our truck bed and this held everyone in. We had camping chairs, back packs. Fishing reels and paper towels. All kinds of loose stuff and it all stayed perfectly in place. I have been pleasantly surprised and would recommend this for anyone who wants a little security when they have anything in the bed! This totally have me peace of mind on our trip. I expected it to rip the way I was abusing it but nothing! It's still perfect. The hooks are well made and the netting is super strong. It stretches easily but holds stuff down tight. It's truly awesome.

Surprisingly versatile net — works great for storage and organization
This cargo net turned out to be far more versatile than I expected. While it’s marketed for a truck bed, I used it as a vertical storage solution and it worked incredibly well. The net has enough stretch to securely hold shoes, bedding, and soft items while still keeping everything visible and accessible. The attachment points made it easy to customize the fit, and it’s held up well without sagging. If you need a flexible way to contain loose items and maximize space, this net can be adapted for more than just vehicle use. It’s a simple product, but very effective.

Great cargo net!
I have been using this cargo net extensively for the last 8 months and it is fantastic! We are gradually moving to a new home 3 hours away, so I use this every single trip (at least 20 so far). It has performed flawlessly-maintains its shape, no defects, and is a critical part of our move.
