My dear friend, Alix, over at Casa Hice, recently passed this great award to me and I am so honored to be among her blog buds. She is the perfect example of a great Blogger Buddy and if you don't already know her, then please stop by her place and check out her fabulous blog! She's bold and tells it like it is, which is why I just adore her plus, she's tons of fun and her writing skills are amazing! Never a dull moment at Casa Hice! Like she just went on a weekend cruise to the Bahamas for her sister's birthday. Don't miss her cruise post and pics, guaranteed to be good! Merci , Alix, you are "the best"!I'm supposed to tag 10 blog buddies, to pass the award to, but as I started making my list, it turned into three pages of fantastic blog buddies. So, I'd better stick with 10, although there are so many more! Congrats and cheers, mon amis, and merci beaucoup for being some of the best blogger buddies in Blogland!

French Coconut Pie
Here's a great recipe for a heavenly pie that my dear friend, Drick @ Drick's Rambling Cafe', shared on his blog, recently. Please pay him a visit and check out his "over the top" cooking blog and wonderful cookbook! His dear neighbor, Marilyn brought the pie over, as an Easter gift, and called it "French Coconut Pie", while Drick referred to it as "Lemon Coconut Pie". One bite of this divinely delicious pie, by any name, and you will know that you're in heaven, cher! I really had to control myself with this one! Cest bon, cher! Enjoy!1 stick butter, melted
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 tsp. vanilla extract
2 tbls.'s fresh lemon juice
1 1/2 cups flaked coconut
9 inch pie crust
Mix sugar and eggs in large bowl, with wire whisk. Add melted butter, vanilla, and lemon juice. Stir in coconut, last. Pour into unbaked pie shell and bake @ 350 degrees for 35 to 45 minutes, or until browned and toothpick comes out clean. Sinfully delicious!

Congratulations my lovely 'green eyed lady' for your Best Buds Award from the lovely Alix.
And I am very touched to be included in your recommendation for the award amongst your named 10 bloggers. I will lift the trophy high and value it greatly and nail it to my side bar with pride. And thanks for naming Plato's Procrastinations as well - if you would like to see the sort of stuff that moulded your favourite ex ambulanceman's humour there is something posted there today. LOL
And as for the Grench Coconut Pie it looks great and of course made by a lovely sweetie pie. Hugs ~ Eddie
As if you didn't deserve it already, you post a recipe for coconut pie!
Mags... Can I call you mags???

Hey You! Thanks for the sweet props and recommendations to your followers. Heck, I'd better come up with SOMETHING of interest tonight. !I'm at work or I'd do it now).
French Coconut pie looks divine although I must say I'm surprised there isn't a dash of some kind of likker in it!
Thank you for the award!! I love the azalea photos and the weekend getaway. Yes, the life of a Cajun is great!! Have a good one.
