The Big Easy (1987)
An atmospheric and sexy crime caper, this stars Dennis Quaid as a New Orleans police detective. He's a smooth talker who butts heads with the new assistant district attorney, Ellen Barkin. She's rigid and plays by the rules; he is mildly corrupt. They soon find themselves romantically entwined, and a bit chagrined. I love this movie - the Big Easy captures the city's lush and dramatic atmosphere, the performances are excellent, and the cinematography is beautiful.

I lived in Louisiana for a few years when I was younger and one of my many loves I took home was the love of Mignon Faget. She is a jewelry designer in the State and is totally unique in all she designs. If you are a lover of nature and silver, you'll totally fall in love with any of her designs. Her new collection includes these Bamboo inspired pieces with peridot and raw diamonds. Just spectacular! You have to check them out along with the rest of her pieces.

For the last two days I've had one of Choppa's songs stuck in my head. To say that this is a classic album would be a definite exaggeration but it's got some good time tunes.

I remember this! No wonder I loved geography so much. Considering kids' (and Govenor Palin's) lack of knowledge on the subject, this should be a must have.

The Awakening takes place in Victorian New Orleans among the Creole culture. It's a great story of a woman who does not embrace her role as wife, mother, or her place in society, and wishes to be free. This novel was not received well and even banned when it was written because women were not allowed to think or behave freely, and it was seen as distasteful. It's a great book!

Here's my simply fabulous NOLA breakfast treat. Grits with a pat of real butter and a few dashes of cajun hot sauce, topped with an egg over easy liberally sprinkled with Tony's Chachere's Original Creole Seasoning. Oh Yessss! This simply makes everything taste a little better. I may have to start a list just to showcase this.

The most valuable thing in the kitchen is a bottle of Tabasco sauce, and to protect it (and yourself) from any would-be hot sauce thieves, top the bottle with the Tabasco Grenade Topper. Of course, when YOU need to add some heat to your own eats, brace yourself for the explosion when you pull the tab.
