re: Vernon Roger's Cookbook

I always liked to see his cooking even though it was from a can a lot of time. For what it's worth most people use cans and I do on occasion so not really a big deal for me.

I did meet him a couple of times and he was a dick both times. Drunk once just a real a-hole the second time.

I've met Diane Deaton several times and she is a class act. Very petite and still very attractive.

Here's the recipe for the Crawfish Pie. I did not saute the celery and cream separately....just sauted the trinity and blended the cream after the veggies softened. Also,I added garlic to the recipe, used Tony's as the base seasoning('til the salt was right), and I tempered the egg with some of the mixture before folding it all in. Turned out pretty good.Lastly, I didn't add the green onions or the parsley until just before I took it off the stove to pour up. Have fun.

Roger's book is out of print. I just Googled 'roger's cajun cookbook' though and there looks to be a few copies still floating around on eBay, Amazon and Barnes & Noble used books, and iOffer. As for finding it in town, anywhere used books are. I don't think any publisher/printer is willing to produce his cookbook today considering (a) every recipe contains Rotel tomatoes and cream of mushroom soup, and (b) his... problems...

I have the lite version of the book if you want just a recipe or 2 for something in particular, I can post it.

I'm thinking there was a real purpose for the diapers....like maybe....nope, I got nothing
