Are pecans a favorite everywhere or are they just a special delicacy in North Carolina? We love them and people know it. We’ve just gotten this pecan tart recipe from a friend saying, “You must make this.” It could have something to do with a pecan pie craving. We’re willing to try it. But if you have time to make it before we do, let us know what you think. Should we make it a regular Wildberry Lodge breakfast dessert or afternoon treat?
