Download or read book Cook Like a Tie-Down Roper written by Jody Westbrook Bergman and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2021-02-23 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many people journal or keep diaries, but Jody has recorded menus for fifty years and remembers those whom she has served with great joy! Reviewing those menus, the author shares stories of guests; some funny, some poignant, some sad, and all uplifting. Sharing some of the menus, and a few recipes, she uses metaphors related to ranch life and rodeo stories. Stories include the night of a sliding chicken, the dreadful moment that she showed up without The Family Favorite and the day that the Methodists, Baptists and an Atheist appeared at her door with comfort food and other treats. Included are family favorite recipes and how they came to be, plus cooking tips and planning ideas which are woven into each chapter. An entire chapter on planning and table setting ideas gives permission for things to be imperfect, yet still wonderful and even memorable. As one reader said, “Reading these stories makes me want to invite myself to your house, eat a pimento cheese sandwich and hear more stories.”

Download or read book Juneteenth Rodeo written by Sarah Bird and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2024-06-04 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Timeless photos offer a rare portrait of the jubilant, vibrant, vital, nearly hidden, and now all-but-vanished world of small-town Black rodeos. Long before Americans began to officially commemorate Juneteenth, in the heat of East Texas, saddles were being cinched, buckles shined, and lassoes adjusted for a day on the Black rodeo circuit in honor of the holiday. In the late 1970s, as they had been doing for generations, Black communities across the region held local rodeos for the talented cowboys and cowgirls who were segregated from the mainstream circuit. It was to these vibrant community events that bestselling Texas writer Sarah Bird, then a young photojournalist, found herself drawn. In Juneteenth Rodeo, Bird’s lens celebrates a world that was undervalued at the time, capturing everything, from the moment the pit master fired up his smoker, through the death-defying rides, to the last celebratory dance at a nearby honky-tonk. Essays by Bird and sports historian Demetrius Pearson reclaim the crucial role of Black Americans in the Western US and show modern rodeo riders—who still compete on today’s circuit—as “descendants” in a more than two-hundred-year lineage of Black cowboys. A gorgeous tribute to the ropers and riders—legends like Willie Thomas, Myrtis Dightman, Rufus Green, Bailey’s Prairie Kid, Archie Wycoff, and Calvin Greeley—as well as the secretaries, judges, and pick-up men and even the audience members who were as much family as fans, Juneteenth Rodeo ultimately seeks to put Black cowboys and cowgirls where they have always belonged: in the center of the frame.
