[Why-Me]

Most of us dabble in cooking and drinking here. I have to say Kraft Food & Family magazine is excellent! Even get coupons!

Kraft is great source.
We also like to use King Arthur Flour's website they have great recipes and test bakers etc.

I rely on my Cajun roots for both.

Maybe you can post some Cajun recipes...like old school red beans and rice! Cooking for 4 boys gets expensive!

Unfortunately, I usually drink before I cook (also following Cajun roots), so I don't write anything down. I once prepared a marinade for ribs late one night when I don't even remember how I got home. They were the best ribs I ever made and I have no idea what I put in the marinade. Pretty sure there was wine involved though.

Cajun roots produce some amazing food! And probably weekends

One thing I can tell you, almost all Cajun dishes start off with what is called "the trinity" - Onion, Celery & Green Pepper. Whether it is gumbo, etouffee, jambalaya, sauce piquante, or even red beans & rice. Some people don't include all three, depending on their individual taste, but most recipes that you do find will include the trinity. Also, no two Cajuns cook anything the same way.

This is the way I cook too. Nothing ever turns out the same way twice.

We have been known to throw down a good time down here, cher (pronounced sha - like the a in "cat").

If you have ever seen the movie, "The Big Easy," no one told Dennis Quaid that cher was not pronounced CHER (as in Sonny and...). They filmed it in New Orleans and you would think one of the locals would have said something to him, but they were probably just laughing their butt off at him like I do whenever I see the movie.
