Our poor jeanzbeanz blog has been ignored for over a year! So, it's Fat Tuesday and we have returned to say "Laissez les bon temps rouler!" - Let the good times roll!
Appropriately, our word for the day is 'lagniappe' pronounced 'lan yap'. It's a sorta-French-by-way-of-Louisiana-with-some-Spanish-and-American Indian-throw-in word meaning 'little something extra'. In olden days, a merchant would include a small gift or a little something extra just for good measure. For example, that 13th beignet added when ordering a dozen.
In keeping with this tradition, we try and add a little something to every package. We have great customers so it's an easy task!
Laissez les bon temps rouler!
