| Brown sugar is used commonly in baking and cooking. However we never use the full bag and store only to find next time we use it the sugar is now hard. Crystal Sugar.com has this interesting information. How can brown sugar be stored to prevent hardening? Store brown sugar in a way that allows the product to retain its natural moisture--in its original plastic bag (closed tightly) or in a moisture-proof container. (A good use for your canisters)
If the sugar hardens, let it stand overnight in a sealed jar with a damp paper towel or apple slice. For a quick fix, heat the needed amount in a 250 degree oven for a few minutes, or microwave on low for 1-2 minutes per cup. Use immediately.

| I can remember when my grandma cooked tapioca the vanilla flavor in it smelled so good; but I always wondered what tapioca was. From Wikipedia -Tapioca is essentially a flavourless starchy ingredient produced from treated and dried cassava (manioc) root and used in cooking. It is similar to sago and is commonly used to make a milky pudding similar to rice pudding. Purchased tapioca comprises many small white spheres each about 2 mm in diameter (although larger grain sizes are available). These are not seeds, but rather reconstituted processed root. The processing concept is akin to the way that wheat is turned into pasta. These tapioca pearls are made mostly of tapioca starch, which comes from the tapioca, or bitter-cassava plant. In other parts of the world, the bitter-cassava plant may be called mandioca, aipim, macaxeira, manioca, boba, or yuca.

| Although apples trees are not very common in Cajun country; apple remains a very popular fruit for both eating and cooking. Here are fun facts from www.funfacts.com - If you grew 100 apple trees from the seeds of one tree, they would all be different. Apples are fat, sodium, and cholesterol free. Apples are a member of the rose family. 25 percent of an apple's volume is air. That is why they float. The largest apple picked weighed three pounds. China is the leading producer of apples with over 1.2 billion bushels grown in 2001. It takes about 36 apples to create one gallon of apple cider - and only 6 apples to create this delicious dessert.
