About the "Grits Girls" Name

Dana and friends Linda Alverson, Donna Hunt, Staci Scroggs, Joyce Stansell, and Angela Watts took a girls-only trip to New York City. Each wore a "GRITS" sweatshirt in the crowd at NBC's Today Show. Host Bryant Gumble interviewed them and christened them "The Grits Girls".

The name has stuck, and they are still known as The Grits Girls today! Each of the girls has contributed recipes to the books, and when it was time to decide on a name for the first book, it had to be GRITS!

 
GRITS stands for:

     Gracious Southern Ladies and Gentlemen;
 
   R       Rediscovering Old Recipes and;
 
      I       Interested in Learning New Ones;
 
         T       To Assist in Entertaining;
 
            S       Southern and Northern Family and Friends
