Cajunsick

We went to Gumbeaux's restaurant for our 8th anniversary. It was not too far from our house and I've always wanted to try it out. It was fitting for us to go there on our anniversary as we started dating in Louisiana.

As we drove into the old part of Douglasville, I thought it was a short, charming street. When we entered the restaurant, the walls were painted yellow, green and purple decorated with masks. A bit too tacky in my opinion.

I spotted jambalaya on the menu and got excited! Jeremy ordered stuffed shrimp. Their salad were very good. As I tasted the jambalaya, I was VERY disappointed. It was NOT like any jambalaya I've eaten in Louisiana!!!! This meal had a lot of "tomato" sauce in it. EW. Lesson learned, do not order any jambalaya outside of Louisiana. However, the stuffed shrimp and hushpuppes turned out to be tasty. 3 Cheese grits was a nice touch!

Will we go back? Yes, only if we get cajunsick!

Life's Full of Peaches

Peaches are everywhere here! Ever since we relocated to Georgia, I see the word of "peach" everywhere. "Peachtree Street" "Peachtree City" "Georgia peaches" You get my drift. Jeremy and I got excited when we saw, "Po Folks" restaurant. I had fond memories of eating there as a kid with my family. I ordered chicken livers often back then. To my amazement, I saw chicken livers on the menu! I ordered them and I did not like them very much. I guess our taste buds do change as we get older. Jeremy suggested me to try their Georgia peach muffin. (You had a choice of a peach muffin, cornbread or a roll) It was so good! They even offer a peach iced tea as well.

I love peaches so no complaints here.

My First Blog!

This is my first blog since the days of Xanga. I've missed writing. So I'm going to attempt to write blogs. I like to write stories whenever I can rather than trying to summarize them up in a short sentence in a tweet or facebook status. Most of us miss a lot of GOOD news on facebook especially if there are too many friends on your list. Bookmark this and you will not miss any news!
