This is an oral history interview with Nellie M. Caraway conducted as part of the Houston History Project. Ms. Nellie Caraway was born in Beaumont, Texas but has been a long-time resident of Houston. In this interview, she stresses the importance of preparation during the cooking process, as well as the comparison of things made from scratch versus things made from a package. In particular, she highlights banana pudding as a favorite dish.  She was interviewed on 30 April 2011 at the home of Ms. Marva Smith. Her voice is not so loud due to recent health issues, but the interview is clear. The interview was conducted by Sandra Davidson and Toni Tipton- Martin. The interview is available at M.D. Anderson Library on the main campus of the university.
