Funny, but could anyone actually give up Tabasco for Lent? Even my husband, who is a Yankee (well, his daddy was from Arkansas, and his momma was from Austria, so he's kind of a Southerner) asked me to bring him back some of the new Habanero Tabasco.

But the true Southern sensibility isn't confined to cajuns, you know. I am reading the funniest book, written by a group of fallen Southern Belles from Jackson, Mississippi, "The Sweet Potato Queens Book of Love," I wish I could send everyone I know a copy. The chapter I am reading right now is "Men Who Need Killing." The funniest chapter so far is, "He Ain't Nothing But a Man."

The little old lady behind the counter told her, "I don't know what all these girls are thinkin' of gettin' married; they must just like changin' their names - you can't make anything but a man out of 'em. And I don't care who he is, when you get him home they's somethin' bad wrong with 'im."

Oh, my. Do they have women like that in the Midwest? They certainly don't seem to in the Occupied portion of Northern Virginia.

Now look, the New Orleans French are also big roux-makers. Those doggone Acadians try to claim credit for everything Creole.

I've got a couple of bottles of Zatarian's gumbo file in my cupboard. Zydeco is that screechy bayou noise... don't know waht Zeringue could be...
