On the other hand, I love Brussels Sprouts and Mrs. Wave can't stand
the smell.

Go figure. :)



Nothing like a couple of eggs over medium and then sprinkled generously
with Tabasco sauce. Sorta wakes you up.

BTW .... I also like Brussels Sprouts cooked until they just get tender,
then semi saturated with vinegar. Vinegar is like wine; all sorts of
varieties.
Brussel sprouts are about the only veggie I have never liked. I think a
lot of it has to do with their aroma. I use a bit of Tabasco sauce when I
fry light flavored fish.

Ever visit Avery Island in Louisiana. where Tabasco is made? It's a couple
hours west of New Orleans, and gives you another excuse to drive around in
Louisiana, as if anyone needed one.
Nope. Been to New Orleans twice, once for a week during a trade
show/conference. None of us spent much time at the conference.

Second trip was to take Mrs.E. Quite a city and a lot of fun.

I got a kick out of visiting the Superdome as well. It was empty and a few
of us took the tour.
All the seats had a shadow-like image designed into the backs of the chairs.
The tour guide explained that the shadow made the place appear to be filled
to capacity to viewers watching on TV.

Yep.

I haven't been back in almost 35 years unfortunately.

Someday I will.

If you make it back to LA, you need to visit the Bayou area. As great
as the cooking is in NO, the real Cajun and creole cooking is outside of
NO and Baton Rouge. I loved talking to the natives in Lafayette and New
Iberia and the food is unfrickingbelievable.
