Cajun Food Where You Find It
Cajun French: le giromon (lu jeer-ō-mon) – pumpkin
Fall is in the air bringing wonderful sights and smells to us. The spices of Fall like cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, anise, allspice, etc. are tingling our senses and it is time to bake. Pumpkin is a favorite and we like to try different ways to use the fruit. Pumpkin cookies topped the list since we had not tried that before. We found a recipe in Post Punk Kitchen and tweaked it to our taste.
Mais C’est Bon!
Cajun French: la pistache (la pees-tash) – peanut
Bruce, our brother-in-law, is addicted to peanut butter. So much so that Linda, his wife, hides the jar of peanut butter in various places around their home. At times even she cannot remember where the jar is hidden. Linda says that if they ever sell the house there will probably be random jars of peanut butter for the new owners. These cookies are for you Bruce and hopefully Linda won’t hide the cookies.

Dessert anyone?
It is always nice to have something sweet after a meal. Only eating whole grains and watching animal fat, interesting desserts are somewhat a challenge. We are experimenting with dessert ideas and ingredients. After trying various combinations of whole wheat cookies, we settled on this recipe.
The cookies are sweet. We like the sweetness because one small cookie satisfies the dessert craving.
Mais C’est Bon!
Enjoy!!
