Description

Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop CafeFolksy and fresh, endearing and affecting, Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe is the now classic novel of two women in the 1980s; of gray headed Mrs. Threadgoode telling her life story to Evelyn, who is in the sad slump of middle age. The tale she tells is also of two women of the irrepressibly daredevilish tomboy Idgie and her friend Ruth who back in the thirties ran a little place in Whistle Stop, Alabama, a Southern kind of Cafe Wobegon

Folksy and fresh, endearing and affecting, Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe is the now-classic novel of two women in the 1980s; of gray-headed Mrs. Threadgoode telling her life story to Evelyn, who is in the sad slump of middle age. The tale she tells is also of two women--of the irrepressibly daredevilish tomboy Idgie and her friend Ruth--who back in the thirties ran a little place in Whistle Stop, Alabama, a Southern kind of Cafe Wobegon offering good barbecue and good coffee and all kinds of love and laughter, even an occasional murder. And as the past unfolds, the present--for Evelyn and for us--will never be quite the same again...

"Airplanes and television have removed the Threadgoodes from the Southern scene. Happily for us, Fannie Flagg has preserved a whole community of them in a richly comic, poignant narrative that records the exuberance of their lives, the sadness of their departure. Idgie Threadgoode is a true original: Huckleberry Finn would have tried to marry her "
--Harper Lee, Author of To Kill a Mockingbird

--The New York Times

"It's very good, in fact, just wonderful."

Only comes with ONE pillowcase.
Color: White, Size: Queen(Pack of 1)
Pillowcase seems nice. I didn’t read the description closely enough to see it only comes with ONE pillowcase. The photo clearly shows two, which is misleading and the item name states “pillow cases” plural, as if there are two. Then wayyyy down in the description it says pillow cases are sold individually.

Good but slides off pillow
Color: Gray, Size: Standard(Pack of 2)
Ok these are actually cooling and a decent material but they keep sleeping off my pillows and it’s so frustrating. I don’t know if it’s because my pillows and gel memory foam but I cannot keep them on for anything. Because of the price I’m going to keep them just wish they would stay on.

Soft material and feels cool for a few minutes
Color: Gray, Size: Queen(Pack of 2), Color: Gray, Size: Queen(Pack of 2)
These pillow cases are extremely soft and smooth to the touch, which feels amazing, but at the same time they do feel slippery especially when the pillows are stacked on top of one another. I noticed that when I used these pillow cases along with another set of pillows with a different material, that they would easily slide around as well. The quality of the pillowcases feel durable even though it may feel soft. I like the light grey color that I chose and since it's a queen sized pillowcase, the memory foam pillows that I have were able to fit easily. The cooling feature on the material of these pillow cases feels really nice and makes a noticeable difference especially when the weather is starting to get warmer. Although the material will start to feel warm on contact on one side after a few minutes, it will still feel cool once I flip my pillow to the other side. Overall, I like the quality of the material since it feels soft, but for $15 it might seem overpriced.

Comfortable and stays cool
Color: White-cooling Basic, Size: Queen(Pack of 1)
Great pillow. When i opened it, i noticed a strange smell, i assumed its the smell of whatever they use to make the pillow stay cool. You have to fluff it for a good amount of time to make sure the cooling agent spreads well in the foam. Is what i assumed atleast. Its a perfect amount of softness for me. Pair it with some bamboo pillow cases and you got a good night of sleep
