Angie,

Enjoy those pecans. We got some in South Georgia this year but they are certainly scarce.

This year was a horrible year for pecans but last yr was awesome. I feel very lucky having those trees and lol, the limbs that constantly fall out of them make that burn pile or some good wood for smoking meat !!!!

H Sterg,

We’re all having a challenge trying to find enough pecans this year. Walnut and almonds would work just fine. 🙂 Almonds might be better because they have about the same amount of sweetness as pecans, whereas, walnuts are a tad bitter.

Swapna,

I’m so happy you like these. I’ve got my pecans all ready to start cooking up some batches, myself. You are going to make some lucky gift recipients very happy.

Merry Christmas, Swapna!

Jean,

I’ve always loved puh-kahns, too! They’re still my favorite nut. I’m so thankful that I can still afford to buy the little rascals. 🙂

There is no bad way to fix puh-kahns. Good in everything!! I could eat my weight in them…but…that might not be good!

Grew up with them growing all around our house, in fact, that is how we used to make our Christmas spending money – picking up pecans. I never had to worry about having any, I always just went to Mama’s and got some more! Hurricane Ivan put an end to that! It destroyed all my parents’ puh-kahn trees! The last two years we have picked up pecans in Georgia on our way home from North Carolina and my husband picks them out. I am so lucky – they were $7 for two cups yesterday at Wal Marts. I have a recipe similar to yours, but it also has chili powder in it. I am making some for Thanksgiving and a pie! Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours! I will be in Mobile – I’ll say hey to everyone for you!

Sherrie,

It’s sad to me that the price of puh-kahns has gotten out of reach for a lot of people. My grocery store carries Georgia Pecan Company pecans and they cost about $10 for the package which has 3 1/2 cups. We have relatives from South Alabama coming for Thanksgiving who usually can bring me some pecans. The crop was so bad this year, they can’t find any. Let’s hope for a better pecan season next fall. 🙂

Happy Thanksgiving to you, Mary! 🙂

When I was a little girl we had a pecan grove & I loved to go pecan pickin. I also loved the smell of fall leaves burning – what memories! Love your recipes and will make sure I sneeze (2 or 3 or 4? times). Happy Thanksgiving and May God Bless You and Yours!!!
