Hi friends, pardon my briefness.

It has come to my attention that there are folks who are not aware of the magical delightfulness of freshly roasted pecans. We need to get the word out. Yes, a raw pecan has chewy goodness. But tasting a raw pecan that is quickly pan-roasted in a cast iron skillet with butter and sea salt?

Magical delightfulness.

The raw chewy texture goes away and becomes a mixture of crunch, pop, and enhanced nuttiness bathed in buttery goodness.

Pecan-lovers unite!

Happy munching.

Eat well, my friends. Eat well.

My name is Lyndi Fultz, and I live in the beautiful Ozark Mountains, which span Northwest Arkansas and Southwest Missouri.

I like to share small ideas for living simply and eating happily.

You will find that I talk a lot about food because we all need to eat. Why not add little bits of food joy where possible?

“Just like becoming an expert in wine–you learn by drinking it, the best you can afford–you learn about great food by finding the best there is, whether simply or luxurious. Then you savor it, analyze it, and discuss it with your companions, and you compare it with other experiences.” – Julia Child
