Is anybody ready for some crawfish? I’m ready for some crawfish. I think me and Dan will have a crawfish party. Maybe M&D will let us have it at their new house since it has such a big driveway.
Maybe Denise and Mark will drive in from LA for some crawfish.
Maybe [...]

Goodbye to fat! Cheers! It’s been months of “food days” – holidays, birthdays, Dan’s retirement trip to Louisiana…what else? Anyway, reminds me of how much family and friends mean to me. Never let go, hold on to the good times, and laugh as much as you can.

Dan is in North Carolina, probably glad to be [...]

Ha ha, me and Dan – that is supposed to be the Houston skyline [...]

It is for some a “gift from Mother Earth”- her creation that has over 1,000 flavor components and 300 chemicals which affect brain chemistry and mood.
With the impending dreaded Chocolate [...]

What do you get when you get together with two Cajuns and a Texan with a zest for cooking?  GREAT FOOD and great hospitality!  The past few days have been filled with brisket, shrimp, white wings, fried fish, and oh yeah - cold beer! (I am sure there was more, but between the food induced high and alcohol induced buzz…well, I [...]
