3. Pecan is my favorite
No wait, Cream Cheese is.

No! Key Lime, although I am picky there.

No! I love Chocolate Silk...

Oh fuck it! :crazy:

4. I LOVE pumpkin
But this Sweet Potato Pie I had yesterday was a nice change of pace from the usual pumpkin. It tasted like the holidays!

5. My daughter (almost 7) corrected me when I said "sweet potatoes."
"It's not sweet potato, Mom. It's sweet potata."

She'd been listening to Paula Deen. :)

7. Hahaha!!!
That reminds me...

When we were in North Carolina back in October... I ordered "Pecan-Encrusted Trout", and the waitress corrected me...

She said "Oh, you mean pee-can?" :D

I thought Nini was going to pee her pants! :rofl:

13. Well, Merriam-Webster says that pronounciation is correct too!

pecan
One entry found for pecan.
Main Entry: pe·can
Pronunciation: pi-'kän, -'kan; 'pE-"kan

:hi:

14. I know!
But it was the way she corrected me... she HONESTLY didn't understand me, and I grew up in the south! I have southern heritage. I guess I have been away for so long that I am no longer understood. :D

She was very sweet and couldn't help but love her for that correction. :-)

19. LOL! "Bless her heart" as they say.
I pronounce pecan both ways, depending on where I am.

Either way, the pie made from the stuff is GOOD.

17. Slightly off-topic, but sweet potato waffles are good too
I made some a couple of months ago and they turned out good. Got the recipe from the "Good Eats" program.

20. If you are on the Blue Ridge Parkway in Virginia anytime soon
Edited on Sat Nov-25-06 12:49 AM by Lex
stop at the restaurant at Mabry Mill for breakfast and get yourself some sweet potato pancakes. I hear they are to die for.

21. I'll remember that
We were on the Blue Ridge Parkway in NC last month. I haven't been to VA in some time (used to live there many years ago for a long time). I appreciate the recommendation! :-)

Sad, I know. :cry: I'm sure I'm missing out.
