re: Jambalaya recipe

Posted by dek81572 on 11/14/25 at 7:41 am to
I'm from Yankee territory, way up here in Bossier City , and I've had 2 different types of Jambalaya. One was more reddish in color and wet and the other I bought at a high school wrestling tournament in Lafayette and it was brown and dry. Which one is preferred by most way down there in the South. I preferred the red wet jambalaya, the brown was way to dry and wasn't as flavorful.
Mom was 18
Dad was 22

On my mother's side my grandma was 36 and Grandpa was 39
My great grandma, mom's grandma was 54.

I was 29 and my wife was 27 when my oldest was born, My great grandma came down from Minnesota to see him since we named him after my great grandpa. I got a 5-generation picture with all of them. Was lucky to have both great grandparents on my mom's mom's side alive until my great grandpa died when I was 25. My great grandma died shortly after my oldest was born.

Damn, the one thing that living in this crap hole of a city and state is that the commies wouldn't want to come here and now I won't even have that!
My advice would be to stay away from YouTube videos. There is too much out there to decipher what you should or shouldn't use for your specific problem especially if you haven't taken a video to see what you're doing wrong. If you saw a video of yourself, would you even know what you're looking for?

As far as swing thoughts go, my only thought is to try and hit the inside of the ball or 7 O'clock and finish at 1 O'clock. I have trouble coming outside to in. I Don't think about too much while I'm playing a round, I do all of the other thinking and tinkering at the range.
Just filled up at Walmart, $2.27 but with my Walmart+ I take .10 off. F150 fill-up was $45.07, not bad.

I would like to keep it around 250


That's going to be tough, $250 is what a good used driver would cost. It can be done because I spent about that much on a set for my son when he started but they were old the original Ping Eye irons 40 years old, a scratched up Mizuno driver a pretty beat up 3 wood and some used wedges, I had a putter. They were pretty much junk but cheap. You said in your original post that you didn't want junk so if that's the case you're going to have to spend more than $250. Golf is very expensive, my whole bag was over $3000. New drivers are $600, it has gotten ridiculous. You should be able to get a whole descent used set used clubs bag and all for under $750. Try Facebook marketplace as well, there are some good deals out there, you just have to be patient and look. Good luck
I was a Taylormade fan boy for years until I tried the Titliest GT2 this year. Before you buy anything, give it a try, the Gt2 and Gt3 are the most played on tour with the Gt2 having the most wins. Gt3 is next, then the Ping. Not saying not to buy the others just that I got fitted into one and picked up 20 yards, I couldn't believe it but the numbers don't lie.
I've actually looked at this myself and the Philippines would be good. For the most part they speak English and it is super cheap to stay there, I'm talking on the beach condo for about $600 a month and cheap street food. The street food isn't as good as in Thailand or Viet Nam but if English is a concern, then the Philippines is the place. Viet Nam is super cheap as well and has some beautiful beach spots in Da Nang. Thailand has some beautiful spots as well but they are a little more expensive and if you choose to stay in Bangkok, you'll have to watch out for the lady boys :lol:.

These are the words to the commercial, I wrote them from memory and I haven't seen that commercial in over 20 years. Just goes to show what good marketing and a catchy jingle can do. :lol:
I was a Fireman for 26 years and I can honestly say that people live like that way more often than you think. Not only in trailers but in nice upscale neighborhoods as well.
I'm going to have to try these, probably without the align. I've heard they are really good.

Therein lies the problem. I'm glad I don't have to choose from amongst this throng of toxic women. There's more than likely a few out there that are worth marrying but for the most part, I'd stay away.
