I didn't see my son, Lance Corporal Eric Harris, for more than two years after he enlisted in the Marines after high school. And when I saw him arrive at the airport, I just grabbed hold of him and burst out crying. When we got home, the first thing he ate was two bowls of my easy banana pudding recipe. He's a true southern boy! It's a dessert, but you can have it for breakfast, lunch or dinner. -Stephanie Harris, Montpelier, Virginia
