| The makings of bread pudding is one dish that you can add or not add ingredients. For instance, you can not have any fruits such as pineapple or raisins. Or you can have one without the other. Nuts or No Nuts. Vanilla or other flavorings. Cinnamon or Not. Nutmeg or Not. The dish lends itself to its creator. Just like gumbo, the ingredients to be included or not are endless. |
| Cranberries are unlike any other fruit in the world. From Cape Cod to Washington State, the cranberry has played a role in holiday culture and family health & wellness for years. They have unique health benefits and are very refreshing.
Cranberries are in the same family as blueberries: Vaccinium. Cranberries were domesticated in the twentieth century. Most cranberries are consumed during Thanksgiving and Christmas. Cranberries' growing popularity began in the 1960s with the promotion of cranberry juice and cranberry juice blends. Since cranberries dishes are so popular in Cajun country, it was good that the fruit found its' way across the bayous.

| Author's note:
My mother had some good recipes and most of them she didn't write down. I just learned from experience while watching her when she would let me in the kitchen! These Lemon Bars are a tradition in my family at Christmas time. I am always asked to bring them. The recipe can be doubled for larger crowds. This is easy and kid friendly. Great for fundraisers and kids treats. Also for those who like bite size cakes or pies. Can be used for Christmas/Holiday desserts or at Bridal Showers. Bring as an extra dessert for those who would rather not eat cake.
Editor's note: Lemon: is a citrus fruit that is used to make lemonade and other fabulous recipes. Often the term "Lemon!" is used to describe a faulty product! We also use the phrase "making lemonade" to express entrepreneurial abilities and our triumph over adversity. As I use to tell my long time friend, when life hands you lemons, you have a choice....make lemonade or bring out the tequila with salt. Now we can add, or let's make Lemon Bars.

| Yum..............Cajun children learn early how to fix good things to eat. This is an easy item to make on the days you don't go fishing.
No, you don't take these worms fishing!!!!They are too yummy to give to the fish. You keep them for yourself and your friends. You can serve them at your next birthday party. They are lots of fun to make and eat. |
| This has to be a family classic and great for holidays and family get togetheres.
Editors' Note: I remember eating this as a child and thought it was so good, I could not wait to finish dinner to get some of this dessert. |
| This recipe was passed down to me from my mama. Mama and daddy were true cajun. Their parents only spoke french and mom and dad spoke french when they didn't want us kids to know what they were talking about. I come from a large family - I had 6 brothers and I was the only girl - so I got to help in the kitchen a lot- Lucky Me!
