In New Orleans lagniappe means "a little something extra." When making a purchase you can ask the shop owner for a Lagniappe (pronounced "lanny-yap") and he will throw in a little bit more, like a baker's dozen.
So in addition to my trip to The Crescent City I will be traveling a little bit extra and visit the head of the Mississippi River for a few days. Upon my return I will report on my culinary research out on the edge of the Prairie.
