668. Marcelle Bienvenu, Part 1
668. We begin women's history month by talking to Marcelle Bienvenu about the history of Creole
cooking. In a city known worldwide for its food, the women of New Orleans have led the way. Marcelle Bienvenu's highly anticipated new release of her timeless classic, Who's Your Mama, Are You Catholic, and Can You Make A Roux?
is a treasure trove of over two hundred recipes, revised with a
Foreword by Emeril Lagasse and sumptuous color photography capturing the
essence of every season. Marcelle is a cookbook author and food writer
who has been preparing Cajun and Creole dishes since the 1960s. She has
written on Creole/Cajun Cooking for The Times Picayune, Time-Life Books, and has been featured in Garden & Gun, Food & Wine, Saveur, Southern Living, Redbook, The New York Times, Louisiana Life, and Acadiana Profile.
The oldest play about Louisiana, author James Workman wrote it
as a celebration of the Louisiana Purchase. Now it is back in
print for the first time in 222 years. Order your copy today!
Grace King. "Pupasse."
EVERY day, every day, it was the same
overture in Madame Joubert's room in the Institut St. Denis;
the strident:
'Mesdemoiselles; ' vos places! Notre P're qui est
dans le ciel ' Qui a fait ce bruit?'
'It's Pupasse, madame! It's Pupasse!' The
answer invariably was unanimous.
'But, Madame Joubert, ' I assure you,
Madame Joubert, ' I could not help it! They know I could not
help it!'
By this time the fresh new fool's cap made
from yesterday's 'Bee' would have been pinned on her head.
'Quelle injustice! Quelle injustice!'
This last apostrophe in a high, whining
nasal voice, always procured Pupasse's elevation on the tall
three-legged stool in the corner.
Philip Sheridan arrives in New Orleans to command the Fifth
Military District (Louisiana and Texas) during
Reconstruction.
New Orleans on March 6, 1927, made his operatic debut in 1947
with the New Orleans Opera Association, as the Duke of Verona
in Rom'o et Juliette. A graduate of Loyola's College of
Music, Treigle went on to receive international acclaim.
He died in New Orleans on February 16, 1975.
