I have not prepared any home-cooked meal for almost the past month. And won't be until 3 days later since I've been overseas and now visiting folks in Toronto.
Not even sure what place we will eat at for supper since it's holiday today, Canada Day with a number of closed restaurants.
But plan to have a dinner tonight somewhere at a restaurant with a sister I haven't seen for a year.

I need to go to the grocery store. Refrigerator raid produced: hummus with olives, heirloom cherry tomatoes, and watermelon. Had pita chips to go with the hummus.
I have a mad craving for gumbo with shrimp, and alligator andouille sausage. Just can't decide whether to make okra gumbo or file gumbo.

Yum! My family is having a big reunion this weekend in Acadia Parish. I'm not going because of cost and other travel...but I'm sure they will eat well and have a big ole' party. My father, stepmother, brother, niece and nephew will all be there. I've asked them to please have a big bowl of crawfish etouffee on my behalf.

I prefer gumbo made with okra, but that's just me.

never had alligator andouille though - I tend to use TJ's chicken andouille, sacrilege I'm sure, but I like it."Sharing the road means getting along, not getting ahead" - 1994 Washington State Driver's Guide

I finally actually cooked something other than baked chicken and steamed veggies
For some reason I was hungry for soup - so I made some some of my never-the-same-twice refrigerator soup! This batch happened to have
Rainbow Chard, onion, cannellini beans, fire-roasted tomatoes, chicken, rice, and lots of spices
Yummy For dessert I had fresh Bing cherries
Even better, I made enough that I don't have to cook for awhile!

We smoked and grilled a pork shoulder. Yesterday I made BBQ sauce for it. The first step is turning 2 liters of root beer into a cup of syrup.
Pretty tasty stuff though.
