My friend Becky is near and dear to my heart. She is smart, compassionate, soulful, thoughtful – I’m thankful to know her. She was born on Cinco de Mayo; we celebrated Cinco de Becky last week with “tapas” at her house. It is so wonderful to know people who LOVE food. It’s even better when these same people all bring food to a party.

My Mom was inspired from my post about trout almandine and prepared a letter and a few recipes for the blog. I am delighted to share them! However, the main ingredient is a bit of a stretch for me personally. I am still steadfast in my goal be a tad more adventurous in the meat department, but turtle? I like turtle. We had a little turtle that visited our backyard regularly, and I took pictures of her. How can I eat turtle? Turtles are cute; thus nullifying their qualification as food (see my previous post on this matter). Nonetheless, the recipe deserves to be shared. Please note that Mom (aka Mimi) has shared some of her own notes following the recipes. Enjoy!
