Mandy Minhouser figures that
she’s already had her fifteen minutes of fame and excitement. The hype created
by the picture that her husband Randy sent in to Girls! Girls! Girls!, which featured Mandy wearing nothing but a
garden hat, has finally died down. And life in the little town of
Kassenburg goes on as it ever has. Until
Big Bill Ludowski, founder and owner of the town’s largest employer - Bill’s
Big and Tasty Sausage- dies while he and Mandy’s grandmother Lila Rose were,
as Mandy puts it, doing their best Adam and Eve imitation under the hydrangea
bushes. That Gran and Big Bill have had
an affair that began around the same time as World War II is a secret that
everyone in Kassenburg knows. But a new secret is about to be revealed. Big
Bill has, in a DVD that only he, his lawyers and Mandy’s Gran know about, bequeathed the sausage factory to Lila. And
he’s posthumously offered the job of CEO
to Mandy, much to the consternation of his relatives.
Mandy doesn’t know squat about the sausage biz and Bill’s
grandson Hughes, the factory’s CFO, does everything in his power to discredit
Mandy and close the Big and Tasty. But Mandy has the one thing that Hughes
doesn’t-- family and friends willing to put themselves on the line to save the
sausage people. With hope, faith and a whole lot of luck, Mandy and company
manage to do just that.
