| Kristie writes - "I actually have a recipe that has been in my family for about a hundred years. It is an apple cake recipe, and it is an incredibly dense cake . I noticed a similar recipe on your website, but since mine isn't exactly the same I thought I would submit it to you. The secret to mine is the brown sugar and baking the cake in a cast iron skillet".
Talking about cast iron it was interesting to read on catfish gumbo's blog spot - HEAVY DUTY DECOYS - No one would make duck decoys out of cast iron, right? Wrong. The idea seems preposterous, yet hunters of the past often used them. These flat-bottomed birds, each weighing as much as 30 pounds, were set on the wings of sink boxes to provide stability and to keep the boxes flush with the water’s surface.

| There are as many ways to make etouffe as there are gumbos, stews, courtboullion and sauce piquant. This etoufee has a nice combinaton of those dises. The author writes - "It's important to not add the shrimp until the end so they don’t become rubbery". I love the author's comment for the recipe yield...depends how hungry you are, So we are guessing ONE if you are hungry enough. One reminds me of the these fun facts from Recycling Fun Facts - Recycling one aluminum can saves enough energy to run a TV for three hours -- or the equivalent of a half a gallon of gasoline.
* 350,000 aluminum cans are produced every minute!
* More aluminum goes into beverage cans than any other product.
* Once an aluminum can is recycled, it can be part of a new can within six weeks.
* Because so many of them are recycled, aluminum cans account for less than 1% of the total U.S. waste stream, according to EPA estimates.
* During the time it takes you to read this sentence, 50,000 12-ounce aluminum cans are made.
* An aluminum can that is thrown away will still be a can 500 years from now!
* There is no limit to the amount of times an aluminum can can be recycled.
* Aluminum can manufacturers have been making cans lighter -- in 1972 each pound of aluminum produced 22 cans; today it yields 29 cans.
Keep America and Acadiana Beautiful!

| We were excited to get this recipe. How nice to put the gumbo to cook in a crockpot before leaving for work or shopping and come home from work and have gumbo ready to eat. Great for Working America - Working Cajuns! This gumbo can be served as a side to a main dish or can be the main dish!

| From the author/chef - I find most gumbo recipes to watery for my taste. So I loaded this one up with a bunch of stuff. I use a dark roux which won't thicken the gumbo as much as a light one. Therefore the okra in this recipe completes the thickening. |
| The secret to this gumbo is the ROUX!!!
Always use warm to hot water to dissolve the roux. While you're at it, make enough as it keeps well in or out of the refrigerator.

| Jambalaya is possibly the most versatile of the traditional Southern dishes along with gumbo. Ingredients include a combination of rice, vegetables and meat, poultry, or seafood. This version is made with fresh sausage and smoke sausage. |
| Men can read smaller print than women can; women can hear better. Makes me wonder who can cook better. We could always attend the Gumbo Festival in Bridge City, Louisiana to find out. In 1973 the Louisiana Governor issued a proclamation naming Bridge City, “The Gumbo Capital of the World”. The 2006 GUMBO FESTIVAL festivities begin on Friday, October 13th, and continue on the14th and 15th. Located on the west bank of the Mississippi River directly across the Huey P. Long Bridge from New Orleans, the GUMBO FESTIVAL is held at Gumbo Festival Park on AngelSquare, 1701 Bridge City Avenue. Activities include a 5K run over the Huey P. Long Bridge sponsored by the New Orleans Track Club. |

| As a little girl, I used to sit in my Granny's kitchen in Lafayette and watch her chop the veggies for this fabulous gumbo. It's very filling, and for me, it's the ultimate comfort food. It's made with a lighter roux, and the spice can be adjusted with a little Tony Chachere's |
| We sold these at the Saturday Food Festival at the World Championship Gumbo Cook-off and they were a big hit. |
| Stacy writes, "I made this for people at work to show them what real Cajun food taste is. It was gone before I ate any. I live now in Oklahoma but originally from Louisiana." Stacy is true Cajun as her recipe reflects, a lil bit of dis and a lil bit of dat.

| This homemade Andouille sausage is the real thing, and it IS spicy! It's great for seasoning beans and gumbo; or use it in anything else that calls for smoked sausage. I use pecan or hickory wood for the smoke, but any fruit wood would do. |
