Post #33 - February 14th, 2019, 7:46 pmIn perusing my Louisiana cookbooks, I've run into a couple iterations of a cheese-y crawfish bread that is popular at music festivals.
Or, I could take another run at the muffaletta (honoring my Sicilian forebears and all).
I'm willing to let all y'all pick....

Post #34 - February 15th, 2019, 8:52 amGiovanna, both sound great,
but we have nothing like Muffaletta on the menu yet...
and it's great for feeding the crowd,
so I'd lean that way personally"If you reject the food, ignore the customs, fear the religion and avoid the people, you might better stay home."

Post #41 - February 18th, 2019, 4:34 pmWe can do a chicken and andouille gumbo instead of dirty rice.

Post #42 - February 19th, 2019, 11:41 amLauraS- whatever floats your boat (or should I say pirogue)
- either Gumbo or dirty rice sounds great"If you reject the food, ignore the customs, fear the religion and avoid the people, you might better stay home."

Post #53 - March 3rd, 2019, 11:15 pmWhat a nice party! It was fun catching up with several friends and, of course, the food was terrific. But more than anything else, the music was excellent. It was really special to hear such fine musicians in such an intimate setting. I wish we could have stayed longer and enjoyed more of it. Thank you, Elaine and Frank, for the fine hospitality!

No apologies for living life to the fullest!
Thanks to you and your family for a fine setting for sharing music, food and friendship.
If I ever have the opportunity to provide pimento sandwiches, I will bring double the quantity. My sister brought the pepper jelly in case anyone wanted it on their sandwich.
Again, thanks!
