Welcome, 2026!

Welcome spring!

It is crawfish season in Louisiana. I have many favorite recipes featuring crawfish, here are several unique ideas to give an updated lift for crawfish tails — from Crawfish Egg Rolls to Crawfish Cheesecake. Plus, I have an easy and delicious recipe for Crawfish Etouffe. It is so simple; anyone can make it.

Plus, this is strawberry season in Louisiana — here are two great desserts for using Louisiana strawberries — considered to be the sweetest and most flavorful around.
