| Did you know...Louisiana is the only state in the union that does not have counties. Its political subdivisions are called parishes. Why? Louisiana was officially Roman Catholic under both France and Spain's rule. The boundaries dividing the territories generally coincided with church parishes. In 1807, the territorial legislature officially adopted the ecclesiastical term. Through each change in her history, Louisiana never deviated and the primary civil divisions have been officially known as parishes ever since.

| Did you party hard when January 01, 2008 rolled in? Were you sleeping? Or sharing some of this wonderful easy to make dip; Hence the words "easy" and "bachelor", synonymous words indeed. The author was once a DJ and manager of the KROF radio station in Abbeville, LA but many Kaplanlites remember him from the days when his Dad had the store next door to the school, He was able to open a pack of cigarettes back then and sell cigarettes 2 for a quarter. Remember this without telling your age? A word on this dip: The longer left in the fridge the better. One day is good; the next day is better; and one week later it is "Oh my God, how good"! The secret is to have it last that long. |
| Ms Bert as she is known by her friends was lucky enough to be coached by some of the best cooks in the Kaplan area. Her Dad, Wilton, has his own restaurant, her Aunt Carrie had a catering business and her grandma Mire had a lot of hungry mouths to feed. As the old saying goes, "the acorn does not fall very far from the tree", Ms Bert (she lets Maw Maw call her that) has learned well from the Masters creating this version using the Cajun favorites of eggplants and crabmeat.

| This dish is a great budget stretcher. Cajuns love to blend various combinations of foods. Great one-dish such as this one are family favorites and are served at potluck suppers, social and family gatherings where friends can catch up on local gossip. Gossip according to Wikipedia consists of casual or idle talk of any sort, sometimes (but not always) slanderous and/or devoted to discussing others. Not yet rated |
