To me there's nothing better than sitting out on the porch of Southeastern Oklahoma looking out at the deep red dirt that goes on for miles. A beautiful sunset, and then me, just sipping on a glass of iced tea (or whiskey) with loved ones, and seeing who can get who to crack up first. I don't know what heaven's going to look like, but if I get any say in the matter, I'd tell the Big Boy Upstairs that's all I want. Just me, people I love, and those acres of red dirt. Throw in some beans and cornbread, and I'm all set. All in all, I think the secret to a nice life isn't that complicated. Most of us probably already know it in our bones, and that's what I want to get back to. Simple fun, hard work, good food, and laughing with those you love. That's what I'm sharing on these pages-some simple, not-that-fancy truths I live by, and a bunch of good stories, photos, and recipes that go along with them. So if you're looking to slow down, get back to basics, and have a heckuva lot of fun, then my friend, I think we're going to have a good time together. So come on in, kick off your boots (or leave them on, I don't care), and learn how to bring a little bit of my ranch-inspired life into your own. The best things in life are really not that fancy. Full of stories, humor, and a couple bowls of chili, this delightful collection of all-things-Reba is just what you need to sit back, relax, and enjoy the ride. Here you'll find: - Over 50 recipes for desserts, meats, sides, and cocktails from Reba's own family traditions - Exclusive photographs and never-before-told stories of Reba's personal and professional life-from ranching with her Daddy to pranks with Brooks and Dunn to falling in love over a plate of tater tots - Lighthearted lifestyle tips on how to achieve Reba's signature hairstyle, design a down-to-earth date night, play a mean game of cards, and so much more Not That Fancy is the perfect year-round gift for Reba fans or anyone who loves that big sky Western lifestyle
