Somewhere with a mild climate, close to good healthcare, more conservative leaning and close to fresh seafood. Maybe N. Carolina Coast or possibly the Tampa/Sarasota area.

My dad graduated from there in 69. But, I remember seeing in his yearbook pictures from the fair, so I think I saw it started before the school closed.

St Joseph Catholic Black Knights (Chauvin)

I want one too. I was in a chilli cookiff and one of the guys had those pots. He said it worked fine but never cooked a jambalaya with it.

I feel the same too, I asked for help on the food board, got it and came back with my results. Common courtesy is about dead.

I use the Zatarains powder in the jar. For 1 sack I use a whole jar, and about 4oz of liquid. For 2 sacks I put the rest of the liquid and about half a jar of powder.

I hadn't smoked weed in probably 25 years. I drank 2 of them and felt a mild buzz, more relaxed than anything. On the other hand, my buddy who told me about them says he drinks 1 and has a great buzz. He quit drinking alcohol and only drinks those now.
Met Brian Knobbs one of The Nasty Boys from wrestling on Bourbon Street.

Met Lee Corso in Jackson Square
Would need a 48" auger bit for some of the Baws around here.
Season your water, I use 1/3 cup powder boil to 1 gallon water.

Bring your water to a boil. Drop in the shrimp, boil them till they float, soak them till they sink.

If you want shrimp to peel easy don't boil fresh brown shrimp.
I watch Our Lady of the Gulf live from Bay St Louis every morning at 7AM. The priest is Father Mike O'Connor, he lays down a good Homily every day. Attendance for their daily mass is typically 45-55 people. They get that good attendance because they have a good priest who speaks well.

RIP Pope Frances

A Pope under 55-60 would be nice but we will end up getting another 75 year old.

re: thoughts on pre-peeled garlic?

Posted by CHEDBALLZ on 4/18/25 at 3:43 pm
I buy the peeled garlic, and run it through a food processor with some avocado and olive oil, freeze it in a ziploc bag and break pieces off as i need them.

Nothing wrong with peeled garlic.

re: Rant - almonds are the new peanuts

I've learned to make my own with whatever ummfeeling at the moment. I have an airlock container of almonds, sunflower seeds, pistachios, walnuts, papitas and cashews. I take a little bit of each one for my snack or maybe just a lot just one.

I'd be willing to bet I boil shrimp more often than anyone on this board outside of someone who works in a restaurant. I buy 300-400 lbs of shrimp a year. About 1/3 of that is brown shrimp that i peel and freeze. I dont boil those. The rest are white shrimp and I boil probably 60-70% of them, all of them from frozen. The shells don't stick even though they were frozen.
