I said that S was going to turn me into a kitchen angel instead of a witch but I think he is the angel having gotten me back in the kitchen to cook at all. Last night, we prepared tikka and grape raita and dal that I am still thinking about this morning it was so tasty – you can’t get Indian food like that here in New Orleans – only place is at Chez…
Mom and I have made a date to get together for brunch on Saturday mornings at 10AM. Today was our first day and we went to Elizabeth’s in the Bywater. Mom had Eggs Elizabeth and I had the Eggs Aubergine – the food is yummy good and we toasted wth a mimosa our first brunch in our new schedule. She looked surprisingly good – just a beautiful woman – but the osteoporosis has her slumped…
Big grand opening today for Robert’s (pronounced Row-bears) Supermarket in Lakeview – two plus years after Katrina and this is a big sign of life for a battered neighborhood. Soul Rebels were playing outside to greet the crowds.

And when I wasn’t looking she would shake the hour glass and then the evening went on like that – her silliness, my seriousness. I remained distracted. Today, for some uncanny reason,…
Tonight we started off deciding to meet here at the LaLa and then it happened – there was champagne and there was Turkish music and soon there were Turkish people and we were all dancing and loving life and someone said that LaLa stood for positive energy and we danced inside then we danced outside and we grooved to a beat that is as old as the Ottoman Empire and I don’t know what it…
This week has been an assembly line of work – do this, then this, then that, and omg, I forgot about this, that and this, then this, then that – and today is TGIF or let me put it with more emphasis it is TGIFF – because the assembly line stops here – I’m done, stick a fork in me.
You quote dead people: Here’s another one from Gomez: Wagner’s music is better than it sounds–Twain ( I believe)
