I know, I know...it has been forever! For that I apologize! It seems that all I have as excuses for my absence, are just that; excuses. I could bore you with details about how life always seems to get in the way; or this cool thing happened, or that...but when boiled down, the only thing I could come up with for not blogging was apathy (if I'm being honest). Not to say I didn't care about food still or cooking; but more that I couldn't see why anyone else would care about what I saw and what I did...especially what I ate!
That being said...my moment of apathy has past and I plan on relaying to you about all of the food I ate while in NOLA; most will have pictures accompanying them, and maybe you could have a chance to experience what I was fortunate enough to experience; without the cost of hotel and airfare.
I am a huge fan of Southern cuisine. To me, it is the ultimate comfort food. It is usually spicy, extremely fattening and there is always tons of it! That is the way I like to eat! I was very excited to get to come to New Orleans and experience Southern hospitality at its finest and eat: oysters and crawfish, jambalaya and etouffe, red beans & rice and beignets and more! If there was room in my belly, it would have been all of the aforementioned items on rotation from different eateries day after day. The fact that I need to keep my girlish figure really trampled on my dreams of just eating 24/7; so I stayed within my digestive means and made sure to walk everywhere (just so I could eat more), to ensure that I could try as much as I could try...all for the sake of science of course!
Please stay tuned for the culinary journey that was New Orleans. Pics and food to follow!!!!
