Something I've been thinking of all morning - which might just be a southern thing that isn't particularly Cajun, BUT WHO CARES, RIGHT? - is deep fried pickle slices.

Oh My God.

And fried green tomatoes - or hell, fried red ones - WHO CARES, RIGHT?

And red beans and rice. Put it in front of me and I'll eat a pot of it right now.

Shall I go on?

I am happy to be vaccinated and home.  I got there early and there was no line. My appointment was for 10:45 but I was vaccinated and in their recovery by 10:39.  I also lucked out with two wonderful taxi drivers.

Thank you, all, for the vibes!

Born in Ohio, I was conceived in New Orleans. I have always wanted to visit the city and I would love to try Cajun food. BK's catfish and hush puppies sound deelish!

Excellent. Now take it easy, and (I just saw people saying this on another site) hydrate. I didn't think to do that, myself, but it certainly can't hurt.

Suad replied to my email, and we will deal with my unemployment this afternoon. She says my account seems to be in order.

The nurse gave me the same advice!

Just got news from my sister in Germany that her best friend died last night from cancer. Very upsetting for Brigitte, because she wasn’t able to spend any time with her because of covid restrictions.

I met Angi on several trips over there, spent quite a bit of time with her Christmas two years ago. She was good people.

Condolences on your sad news, and sending vibes of comfort to your sister :(

Congrats to DR JANE on rescuing Molly.....I don't know what a party poodle is, but I bet it's cute.

I seemed to have spelled it incorrectly.  A parti poodle is two toned.  The markings on the dog were different than this one.  I had trouble finding a photo of one without the horrid poodle cut.

I am not a fan of poodles yet I seem to like the parti poodles I meet.  Here is one in a different color.

As I was drifting off to sleep last night, I felt grateful that it was Thursday and after a long, hard week there was only one day to the weekend. Then I realized it was just Monday. I’m surprised I fell asleep after that.

I have spent many wonderful hours eating my way across New Orleans and the surrounding area. I also took a delicious cooking class (purely for tourists, I realize). I used to make a terrific jambalaya, using everything from ostrich to artichokes in the mix. Can’t eat it often anymore because of the rice not being diabetic friendly. But I will make gumbo with a little rice and a lot of okra.

I love it all. The po’boys, the fried okra, the oysters on the half shell, pralines, the beignets, the Cafe du Monde coffee, a Ramos gin fizz and a brandy milk punch.

I also love Creole food, which is French fare with a little Louisiana heat added occasionally. I particularly love the oyster artichoke soup served at Galatoire’s.

My thought would have been:  just kill me now.

I went to the gasoline station.....$2.79 per gallon.....then to the bank to make a deposit.....big crowd....and then to Ollie's.

In their flyer last week they had an electronic scale that somehow also figures BMI and works with your blue tooth to remember your weights and other things.  I wanted to get one for my sister for her 50th birthday in April.

She always uses my electronic scale because it is accurate.....I also bought a nice 5'x7' brown rug since I decided I wanted my $539/$19 chair to stay in the computer room.

Glad that we have had reports of successful second appointments, and that all seems to be well.

Good (almost) afternoon.  Busy morning - which has suddenly happened when I started teaching in person again!  I like it as it makes the day go by quicker.  The weather is very spring-like and it's totally beckoning for a bike ride, but as usual, I'm teaching all day. Music rehearsal for Easter this evening - 3 of us in person LOL.  Should be fun.
