One of Hollywood's best-loved southern ladies...in a conversation you'll never want to end.Known to millions as Julia Sugarbaker of Designing Women, Dixie Carter now offers her personal report on the possibility of happiness and an ode to beauty (inside and out), family, and the spirit.With a voice that is funny, warm, self-deprecating, and instantly familiar, Dixie shares her memories of growing up in Tennessee, her adventures in show business, and her philosophy of kindness and grace.
