Louisiana proverb: "Each cook knows his own pot best"  *

	
Shirley's Recipes is a work in progress. 

Mom's Favorite Recipes are favorites by my other mother, "Ralph."
  
Our garden helps fill the pantry, so information on growing, preserving and 
storage is also included.  
 





* Roughly Translated Disclaimer:  Most of these recipes have been tested in  
Planter's or, Mom's kitchens and are generally fail-safe for us, but we make no
    guarantees.

Dedicated to my grandmother, who taught me the virtue of home cooking, to my mother, Nina, who taught me the virtue of a healthy, balanced diet, and to my other mother, "Ralph", who taught me that there's a limit to those virtues! See Heroes & Heroines.
