Second Day of Christmas – 2 voodoo dolls

Cajun French: gris-gris (gree gree) – spell or charm

boudin (boo-dahn) – Cajun sausage

 

Voodoo is a religion practiced mainly in the Caribbean and also has a presence in New Orleans and south Louisiana. Although it is a religion, Voodoo also means a charm, spell, fetish, or curse which holds magical power. The Voodoo Doll represents the spirit of a specific person.
