New Orleans Beignets....


It's Saturday morning.......I made you Beignets!

Ok well my daughter tricked me into making them. She said "you can blog about it". Sneaky, tricky little girl I've raised.....Yeah, okay, she's just like me. I would have sooooo pulled something like that with my mother.  She probably had me blog about it because she would eat them all when I was busy writing and taking pictures.

Anyway....

I'm a New Orleans girl down to the core.

I was born and raised here and never plan on leaving.

There's just too many good things here.

We have great food........

Mardi Gras.......

Riverboats.......

Streetcars.........

Bourbon Street.....

and we have Beignets!

If you're ever in New Orleans you must stop at Cafe' Du Monde and order some Beignets. These are French doughnuts and just utter goodness......I mean they are sprinkled  covered with powdered sugar. While you're there be sure to get a cup of their delicious coffee too.

If you aren't as lucky as I am to be from New Orleans and can get beignets as often as I can, you can always order a box of their signature mix or check your local Walmart. Some carry it.
