Cajun Sexy Cooking? (Plus Swamp Monsters!)
I was enjoying a repast at Chops, one of my favorite local eateries which happens to be Cajun themed when I thought to myself it’d be nice to have a Cajun cookbook in the house so I could maintain my hermit like existence and still enjoy the finer things in life like crawfish ettouffe. It also wouldn’t hurt if the book was full of scantily clad women.
That’s when I remembered Dana Holyfield, the Russ Meyers of the swamp and all round decadent woman after my own heart. Way back in the year 2000 (the dark ages) Dana had published a just such a cookbook which is now something of a collectors item. It was called Cajun Sexy Cookin’ and surprise! There’s a promotional video for it:
Like I said the books have become a collectors item so you’ll have to purchase yours from private sellers. Right now there’s still two on Amazon, but otherwise you’ll have to luck into one in a used bookstore.
Cryptomundo ran a piece on Dana a few years back about her documentary The Legend of the Honey Island Swamp Monster. Seems like great diner viewing while enjoying some gator medallion shiskabobs:
Awesome. My weekend plans are set. Dana has a website here. Apropos of nothing in particular we here at the Hellfireblogs office sometime do website design, for the right price.
