Oooooooo, so good!!! My daughter lives in LA now (after having been raised in Boston!) and loves the food. My little grandson is Cajun at heart. His favorite food is red beans and rice with gravy. LOL Jessica had never even heard of it before moving there!
ReplyDeleteI've stopped by again just to "check up on you." I love your website so much. I'm featuring a blog every month on my site. This month, it's yours! Please come by if you get a chance and see your write up. I'll be posting you on Friday.

Oh gosh - my first thought is, that book could have come from my family - how 70s! We were learning how to show dogs and we moved out of Gilbertsville to Cortland in the late 70s. My parents unloaded a bunch of stuff with the move - who knows where it all went. What a blast from the past.
