Jug Jug & Book Giveaways

My friend Gwen says, “People are not into making ole time food” and unfortunately, that is exactly where Jug Jug finds itself, in the ole-time-food category. Read this week's column to learn more about this Barbadian Christmas Dish and for the recipe. Any of the variety of pigeon peas shown below will work.

My friend Maryann over at Finding La Dolce Vita along with her friend Joe are hosting a Seven Fishes Feast event, a tradition the Italians follow every Christmas Eve. They are going to be giving away a basket full of goodies! Click here for the event details. My entry is a dish of Chinese Longevity Noodles and garlic shrimp. Enjoy!
