Those pecans were large, pale yellow, really meaty.<br /><br />They're great mixed into waffle or pancakes of course, as well as in mashed sweet potatoes, or on top of sweet potatoes.mindspringyahoohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04916299133467799390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8796960161183320830.post-6282077446995439292012-02-13T09:24:26.193-05:002012-02-13T09:24:26.193-05:00You simply cannot beat a good pecan pie, Vagabonde...You simply cannot beat a good pecan pie, Vagabonde! My ex-MIL made several at Thanksgiving time which we even ate for breakfast. Yup, that good. I have no clue what her recipe was but it sure was wonderful.<br /><br />In the deep South, some pronounce "pecan" with the emphasis on the first syllable and with the can part sounding like a can of beans (PEE-can). I grew up with the emphasis on the second syllable and with the "can" sounding like kaaahn. And so it it with a word like pecan!Ginnie Harthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14014434422568561157noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8796960161183320830.post-3071079920903602252012-02-12T12:02:26.044-05:002012-02-12T12:02:26.044-05:00Where do you get all these pictures?

And, that pecan pie looks so delicious, even after that extra 10 mins. I don't bake and so am not aware of so many variations of the nuts or even the ways you can use them. I don't know any recipes either. But, one of my favorite baked goods is butter tarts with pecans. Maybe you can use some of your pecans for these little delights.Artihttp://rippleeffects.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8796960161183320830.post-5212851105693455212012-02-08T18:53:15.668-05:002012-02-08T18:53:15.668-05:00What a yummy post!

We, of course, don't work in 'cups' (why don't you Americans use grams or ounces?) so would need to translate but I am sure that wouldn't be a problem.<br /><br />I have though one slight problem in that Pecan sounds like Toucan and for many years I imagined Pecans were birds with beautiful plumages.<br />That they should be nuts, seems almost a disappointment.Fenniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02377814681496294457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8796960161183320830.post-82645686615892020852012-02-07T05:35:47.412-05:002012-02-07T05:35:47.412-05:00Your build up with the wonderful information about...Your build up with the wonderful information about pecans made me hungry, so it's a good thing you included a recipe!
