Tapioca (a.k.a. cassava root) Pudding and a History Lesson

Today's history lesson led to a large pot of homemade tapioca pudding. The original source of tapioca is the root of the cassava plant, which was harvested in Central and South America by ancient civilizations thousands of years ago. Who knew? Thank you Story of the World for putting some "yum" into our day.

(By the way, the best recipe comes straight off the back of the bag.)
