LITERATURE + LECTURES

Blue Willow Bookshop presents  Ree Drummond.  The Pioneer Woman cometh! We cannot wait to meet Ree Drummond, author of a new cookbook, The Pioneer Woman Cooks. This event is designed as an open house; you may arrive at your convenience between 1:00 and 3:00 and have an opportunity to go through the signing line and meet Ree.

Paula Deen meets Erma Bombeck in The Pioneer Woman Cooks, Ree Drummond’s spirited, homespun cookbook. Drummond colorfully traces her transition from city life to ranch wife through recipes, photos, and pithy commentary based on her popular, award-winning blog, Confessions of a Pioneer Woman, and whips up delicious, satisfying meals for cowboys and cowgirls alike made from simple, widely available ingredients. The Pioneer Woman Cooks—and with these “Recipes from an Accidental Country Girl,” she pleases the palate and tickles the funny bone at the same time.

On her very popular blog, The Pioneer Woman, Ree regularly gives us glimpses into her daily life, whether she's cooking amazing food, homeschooling her four kids or helping out on the family's working cattle ranch. Ree is a force of nature and we can't wait to welcome her to Houston!

Ree Drummond began blogging in 2006 and has built www.ThePioneerWoman.com  into an award-winning website, where she shares recipes, showcases her photography, and documents her hilarious transition from city life to ranch wife. Ree lives on a working cattle ranch near Pawhuska, Oklahoma, with her husband, Ladd, and their four ranch hands.
