gumbo
Today was a balmy 67 degrees. Unseasonal for early February in Pennsylvania. It felt like winter in Louisiana, where you're not sure whether to wear a jacket or a Tshirt.
Chris and I have been passing a weird mood back and forth all week. I think we miss NOLA. It was Mardi Gras yesterday. Today I wore the same maternity Tshirt I wore to the last Mardi Gras parade I went to, when I was pregnant with Ellis. I wore it today as I stood stirring a steaming vat of gumbo. I don't think it's possible to make gumbo in quantities smaller than Big Vat.

Yeah, Alissa is crying over missing Mardi Gras right now, too.

I've never been to Mardi Gras, but we used to be regulars each year at the jazz festival. I look forward to taking Ethan someday! Enjoy the vat of gumbo, sounds really good.

I'd love to know your recipe for gumbo. I'm trying to learn more rice and beans recipes...
