hurricane hiatus
If you weren't already aware, I live it the wonderfully unique city of New Orleans. And if you also weren't aware, it attracts hurricanes like cat hair to a black sweater. If the hurricane is on this side of the globe, it WILL get sucked straight into New Orleans. That's just the law of the land.
ANYWAY, hurricane Isaac isn't looking so bad, but just bad enough to foil my plans for cooking on Tuesday and Wednesday. Instead I'll be watching the rain drops and sipping on a glass (or two, or three) of wine until the power comes back on and the flooded streets drain away.
Hopefully by Labor Day weekend (when I have another couple of days off) things will be back to normal, the grocery stores will be re-stocked, and I'll be able to cook and photograph some more yummies for you!
If you want to see what it's like inside of a hurricane follow me on Facebook and Twitter, I might post some photos!

On Sunday the forecast showed a 2 aiming toward Pensacola, so I feel your pain (and stocked my wine fridge accordingly).
I know everyone will say this, but stay safe! (And enjoy some good wine while the lights are out.)

I'm down in Miami and Isaac just passed over us. It wasn't so bad, so I'm hoping it stays like that when it gets to you!
Stay dry!

I hope some rain gets sucked up into Nebraska from Isaac. We could sure use it. Stay safe.

Stay safe! We barely felt it here in Miami, so hopefully it won't be so bad when it reaches you.

We're supposed to get soaking rains over Labor Day Weekend from Isaac. My daughter is getting married Saturday -- outdoors (there are alternate plans). It's kind of a catch-22: We really need the rain; we'd just like it not to be Saturday. We were always aware of the possibility of rain but were more worried about it being 90+ degrees and humid. I think the only thing we didn't think about were mosquitoes and West Nile virus!

DAMMIT! IF I would've known you were in NOLA, I would've been cajoling you into having a drink with me last week when I was there. Preferrably with Gumbo...preferrably at Coop's Place!

Enjoy the wine and the rain while you can, cause we're waiting with baited breath for you here on the interwebs :) Until then, I will be making your SMF crustless quiche with a side salad for dinner!

I don't know how long I've been reading your blog, but I had no idea you are in NOLA! We live there too. We went ahead and left. I didn't think that being without power would be fun with our kiddos. Anyway, stay safe & dry! :-)
