Book Description
A Cajun man's wife really wanted a pair of alligator shoes. She'd been bugging him about it for years. One day, he saw a gator in the road, and when that gator ran straight into the swamp, that henpecked husband followed him and caught him. He wrestled that gator to the ground, flipped him on his back, and said, "You know, he ain't got on one damn shoe."
Cajuns don't care who the joke is on, as long as there is a joke. I ga-ron-tee! And no one was better at telling these spunky tales than the most outspoken Cajun of them all--Justin Wilson.
Written in authentic Cajun dialect, "More Cajun Humor" is a collection of humorous stories recounting the antics of Wilson's bayou buddies, from the high-jumping bear hunter to Catfish Joe.
About the Author
Justin Wilson wears many hats in addition to his chef's hat. In fact, he doesn't even wear a chef's hat because he doesn't consider himself a chef. He is the first to say that he is Cajun cook-not a chef. He is a humorist-not a comedian-who has appeared on television programs across the country, including The Tonight Show.
When not cooking, Justin may wear a hard hat, since for many years he worked as a safety engineer. He also wears the hat of a storyteller and weaves his stories into his books and his cooking shows aired on Public Broadcasting Systems throughout the country. (Incidentally, Justin's new television series, the companion to his new book Justin Wilson Looking Back: A Cajun Cookbook, is currently in production.). Justin also wears the hats of raconteur extraordinaire and goodwill ambassador of the Cajun people of Louisiana.
Justin Wilson learned much of what he knows about cooking from his mother. He took that knowledge, developed his personal cooking style, and helped to pioneer the Cajun cuisine that caught the country by storm when he appeared at the ABA in 1974.
