add a little water, and heat over. Or you can let it stand on low
heat while spooning out. If you have never tasted freshly made
pralines, made from fresh Louisiana pecans, you have just never
really lived. Justin Wilson says, "Doris is the much better half

bonfires that are burned on the levees along the Mississippi River to
light the way for Papa Noel (Santa Claus).
