Thank you so very much, I think, for bringing home that box of heavenly goodness. Please feel free to do so at any time. Loretta must be one amazing cook. I do think it is a good thing that you do not travel to New Orleans very often and that we live on the other side of the country or your wife would seriously weigh 500 pounds. I think that stuff should be on a DEA, FDA, or ATF hit list because I CANNOT stop eating it. I hope you got some before you left because there's like a 99.99999998% chance that all you get when you get home is a box with a picture on it. I don't even want to know how much butter is in it. Good thing it's the 5th ingredient in a list of 6- right behind sugar, which is at least behind pralines and pecans. One redeeming quality is that I can pronounce all 6 ingredients. That means the calories are better for me, right? I must admit that I'm not totally up on what a praline is, but I'll fix that as soon as I'm done here. They are yummy, whatever they are. Thank you so much for thinking of us. We all appreciate it, but mostly me. So glad you're home!
Love,
Shan
pra·line/ˈprāˌlēn/Noun
1. A smooth, sweet substance made by boiling nuts in sugar and grinding the mixture.
2. A crisp or semicrisp candy made by a similar process.PS-I've decided that I love online dictionaries!
PPS- Maybe it's not such a good thing that pralines are the second ingredient behind praline flavoring. Looks like listing pralines at the top gives one a distorted view of how much sugar there really is in this box- and I notice there's no nutrition label. Convenient.. This is definitely a time when ignorance is bliss!

What would a trip out of town be if I cannot spoil the ones I love once in a while. I did get some before I left today with the anticipation that they would be too good to last.
All my love,
Greg

I normally try to stick to chocolate when eating food, but that looks fantastic.
