Last night, I did a little session with my dad on
making tapioca pudding. He did not get any
pictures on his hike, so we put that part of our
little session off. The recipe he uses is in the
Fannie Farmer cookbook. There are lots of
variations: chocolate, coonut, coffee (I don't
really like coffee, so I think I will skip that
one), and butterscotch (sweetened with brown
sugar, looks really good). I tried my hand at
making it today, and it is now cooling in the
refrigerator

When my mom, dad, and I were eating the tapioca we
made at my little tapioca making session, my mom
mentioned that my sister (who is a real fussy
eater) does not like tapioca because it is
"lumpy." I don't know if I would describe it as
"lumpy," but that texture is a big part of why I
like it.
