NOLA

I'm finally updating my blog, for you sweet friends who actually read it and have been asking for an update. I'm a terrible "bloggist" and cannot believe that my last post was in May!

Since May we have relocated to NOLA, yes, that's New Orleans, Louisiana! It's such a fun town and we are quickly eating our way through it. Here are a few things I've learned about this place.

Po' Boy:   Do not pronounce "Poor Boy" or you'll get
                 "Silly out-of-towner" eye rolls.
                 These are delicious sandwhiches, eat one soon.

Muffaletta:  It's "muff-uh-LAH-tuh" not muffaletta.
                     These are delicious sandwhiches, eat one soon.

Praline:  Do not pronounce it "Pray-leen" or you will be mocked ruthlessly.
                It's "praw-leen." YUM, YUM. This is the home of the
                praline. It's a candied pecan, they make praline coffee and syrup
                among other things and I know it's a flavor I'm going to miss!

More to come!
