My stardust sister, Stella Parton, joined Dolly in New York for the opening of the new broadway musical “9 To 5″ in which Dolly wrote all the music for the play. Stella said “The play was fabulous and of course Dolly’s music was spectacular. What do you expect when Dolly’s doing the writing?” Stella also said “If you are in New York be sure to see “9 To 5.” You know the poor thing needs the money!”
When the Parton family gets together, everyone always wants Stella to cook her famous tomatoes with dill dumplings. They stand around the stove, watching the pot simmer, talking, laughing and trying to decide who gets the first spoonful. Check out www.StellaParton.com
and order one of Stella's cookbooks if you want authenic southern recipes or one of her cd's for pure southern singing.
Stella's Dill Dumplins
2 cups cholesterol-free biscuit mix
1 cup milk
1 tablespoon butter
1 teaspoon dill
Mix together and drop by tablespoon into boiling stew such as: stewed tomatoes, potatoes, beef or chicken. It doesn’t matter, just whatever you want. Sprinkle a bit of dill on top of dumplings. Cover and let cook about ten minutes on medium heat. Serve hot.

Yummy! I didn't know that 9 to 5 was now a musical on Broadway. Something to look forward to! :-)
This was a fun post. Thank you for sharing.
Dumplings sound delicious!
I'm long over-due for a NYC "fix"... haven't been into the city in 5 years. Hope the show has a long run because it doesn't look like I'll get there until at least this coming February or April.
Sisters are looking good...thanks for sharing this fun post...hugs and smiles Gl♥ria
I hadn't thought of dill in biscuits. What a yummy idea!
Oh good lord of living! Dill! Why didn't I think of that. Dill is just one of the best & under appreciated herbs out there!
Fabulous recipe as usual Miss Libby!!
I bet they are a fun family. Libby I have been practicing my y'alls and am getting better. Why one day I am sure someone here will ask me where I am from. Trouble is they will be thinking Mars.
They sure are pretty gals. I bet they both are so much fun to hang out with.
Thanks for sharing.
Oh my how wonderful this does sound. Lovely table spread for sure.
These dumplings sound delish...like Rachel would say, "Yumm-O"! Take care ~Natalie
