what a lagniappe?

this exotic looking word if pronounce lan-yap. (say it with me, won't you: laaaaan - yap.) this word derived from the creole culture dating back to the 18th century. it looks like it could be the name of a scary and dangerous beast or an exotic dish from a far off land. but it really means an unxpected gift or a little someting extra for a customer or stranger. everyone loves little unexpected treats, i know i do, so, i've stashed away a few lagniappes for you just for dropping by.
