Cornbread and Buttermilk, a Southern Puppy story.
“Just Two Crazy Kids and a Puppy”.
The Cornbread and Buttermilk: Southern Dogs Manifesto
“Food, Family & the Faithful Dog”
“Here in the South, the kitchen may be the heart of the home,
but the dog lies faithfully beside the hearth.
We believe:
- A Southern dog is more than a pet—they’re kin.
- Dogs are woven into our stories, fields, porches, and family traditions.
- Training a puppy is a sacred rite of patience and love.
- A dog is a bridge between generations—Granddaddy’s bird dog, Mama’s porch guardian, our children’s playmate.
- The South teaches us to live slow, savor moments, return to the land—and a dog teaches us the same.
- Kitchens, gardens, and hunting fields share one truth: life tastes sweeter when shared with a good dog.
- We honor the dogs who came before, celebrate the pups just starting out, and cherish the lessons they teach us.
We will laugh, learn, and love alongside this new life in our household.
Here, we lift up:
- Stories of the dogs who shaped our memories.
- Practical wisdom for raising and training pups with gentleness and respect.
- Tales from our region—coon dogs in the hollers, bird dogs in pine country, yard hounds by the clothesline.
- The way dogs bring families together and root us deeper to a place.
Our pledge:
To tell stories that smell of wood smoke, wet leaves, biscuits on Sunday morning—and a puppy asleep under the table.
To teach with humility.
To speak with gratitude.
To welcome every listener to the porch, where puppies tumble in the grass and memories live on.
This new chapter is for our puppy—Truffles, and for all Southern family dogs, past and future.”

Cornbread and Buttermilk, a Southern Puppy story.
A secret Little Taste of Provence in Canton
There’s a street in Canton where the world tilts just slightly, and if you step through the doors of C’est la Vie, you find yourself no longer in a small Georgia town but in a place where eggs are gathered with reverence, butter melts like sunshine on bread, and cheese is tended with the same devotion we Southerners give to our biscuits. Folks may whisper that French cuisine is lofty, unreachable, meant for another sort of people altogether — but the truth is, it’s nothing more than the comfort of chicken roasted slow, greens tender as spring, fish kissed by the pan, and beef or pork set down with care.
And if you are fortunate enough to have Natalie guide you, she’ll tell you every dish with a sparkle that feels like gospel. I had the Quiche Lorraine, and in her telling it was as if the eggs themselves had a story to sing. At C’est la Vie, there is no reason to be afraid of the French kitchen. For here, in this little corner of Canton, you find a little taste of Provence — sunlit, comforting, and entirely at home.
