A Collection of the Favorite Recipes of Eula Lee Cartieri Once upon a time there lived a gal from West Virginia who was born October 22nd, 1931 in Newell, West Virginia. That’s not far from where the famous Fiestawarepottery comes from. Lou (her preferred name) was raised in a very small town that thrived on the banks of the Ohio River. Being that it was such a small town, less than one mile square, most Newell folks spent considerable time in the kitchen. It was there that Lou first began to build a collection of her favorite recipes. One day she met an Italian man by the name of Joseph Cartieri, and they got married. As one would expect, his Italian family also had some great Italian recipes. So up until the day she died, Lou accumulated a lifetime of notes and instructions on how to create some of the finest tast’in meals, snacks and sweet desserts anyone could ever ask for!This website was created to memorialize Lou’s many wonderful favorite recipes. We hope you enjoy your visit, and return here as often as you like, to see and experience the original notes and handwriting of Lou Cartieri.(HINT: clicking on many of the pictures throughout the website may enhance your experience.)
