Mississippi

The Magnolia State is a Deep South state situated along the Gulf Coast between Louisiana and Alabama. When viewed on a map, Mississippi’s western border looks something like the metal edge of a spiral notebook, all squiggly lines the result of a meandering Mississippi River gently looping its way to the Gulf of Mexico. Some of the world’s most fertile soil is found in the Mississippi Delta, a rich alluvial plain between the Mississippi and Yazoo Rivers in northwest Mississippi. Historically, the delta has been a prime area for growing sugar, rice, cotton, and soybeans. Mississippi shares with Louisiana a history of Creole cooking and some French influence, particularly in the cooking of the affluent. But it is Mississippi’s flavorful, down-home cooking that takes the prize, including ribs and beans, cornbread, turnip greens, fried catfish and hushpuppies, and Mississippi mud pie.

Original Nestle® Toll House Chocolate Chip Cookies

Reviewed on Nov. 21, 2008 by LuLu
what a terrible cookie! It is Friday night and my husband is having a get together with some old friends tomorrow and I planned to make these cookies for a treat and I am using a completely different recipe now! These cookies are cakey and crispy but in a bad way. You can barely tell they are chocolate chip cookies... what a waste of ingredients. NOT a good cookie.

This was sooo good. I added some spinach to my plate and it was delicious. It was super easy and yummy. I loved that I could make it with ingredients I had on hand. I will definitely make this again.

Puffed-Up Zucchini

Reviewed on Nov. 21, 2008 by skepticgirl
At fist I wasn't sure about this.But once I tried it I have to say I'm a fan.The best thing is the kids ate this and didn't know they were eating something good for them.The opnly thing was that the prep time was definatly more than 15 minutes.Other than that it was great.
