A riotously funny, Southern-fried comedy, set in the small town of Sweetgum, Texas. The three Verdeen cousins—Gaynelle, Peaches, and Jimmie Wyvette—could not have picked a worse time to throw their family reunion. Always one step away from catastrophe, Gaynelle bets her house that she can make the better red velvet cake than her self-righteous Aunt Lamerle. The three cousins do their best to put on the Verdeen family reunion amongst the chaos and shenanigans.
