From Denny: What a year it has been! THANK YOU for all your support! These are the most popular posts since May of this year when I found a couple of sites to keep track of it.
Louisiana has had a tough time since Hurricane Katrina hit in August 2005. Thanks to people like yourselves we have come back strong, rebuilding the damage and living the wonderful food culture we love to share with you.
While I'm pulling together this post I'm listening around the corner to the New Orleans Saints playing in the Super Bowl in Miami. Wow! They just won their first Super Bowl!!!! New Orleans down in the French Quarter is rocking with people clogging the streets like it's Marti Gras! It's funny how everyone here in Louisiana was convinced the Saints would win - and they did. I can't wait to update this post with a video of the winning run by the Saints down the field that put them ahead, winning by a score of 31 to 17 against the Colts.
Marti Gras starts early in New Orleans and this will be the first time it becomes a nine day celebration! :)
