Elizabeth sent me this nice and tasty recipe on this card. While the card gives you the ingredients, I have the secret of how to go about making this mouth watering dish ;-)) Those who want to know, please contact me by my e-mail.

Incidentaly, Pecan Pie Day is observed in North America on 12^th July.

Now, what is a pecan? The pecan nut is a species of hickory, native to south-central North America, in Mexico from Coahuila south to Jalisco and Veracruz, in the United States from southern Iowa, Illinois, Missouri, and Indiana to Virginia, southwestern Ohio, south through Georgia, Alabama, Tennessee,Kentucky, Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Florida, and west into New Mexico.

"Pecan" is from an Algonquian word, meaning a nut requiring a stone to crack.
