Sounds good. Recipe?
Not sure how close it is to true chicken creole, but it's easy to make. Basically just a chicken breast, a 14 oz can of diced tomatoes, onion, green pepper, and celery. Oh, and some garlic. Cook the chicken and chop it up; season it with cajun seasoning. Saute the onion, pepper, and celery. Add the tomatoes and about a half can of water. Season to taste (I add a dash of ground red pepper). Throw in a bay leaf or two and simmer it until all of the water cooks out.

I had an oven fired pizza at 411 on Franklin Street tonight. It was delicious!

Leftovers from 12 Bones from a late lunch today: blueberry chipotle ribs, pulled pork, rosemary cornbread, baked beans, corn pudding and jalapeno cheese grits and collards. I tasted the collards to see if I despised them as much as I remember. The answer is yes.
[redacted] them and the horses they rode in on.

2 slices of Papa John's Meat Lovers Pizza. I was really hungry and didn't want to cook. (2 slices = 19 pts for those of you keeping score. I had 16 pts remaining for today with LOTS of activity pts to swap.)

Me: Um, yes. =p~

Grilled salmon, baked sweet potato and salad. We ate at The Cutting Board in Burlington. Max, Dawn and Mark are here this weekend. Our friend, Jim, went to dinner with us. Very nice time. :duke:

Black and bleu burgers and purple sweet potato fries.

I also baked my first loaf of bread today, a five grain whole wheat loaf. It came out a bit dense but otherwise is moist and delicious. Yay baking.

We ate at the table in my house. ;;)

I am a smart ass.
I have heard many good reviews of this place, going back over several years. One day...

I grilled NY Strips. Drank a few beers. Laughed and laughed some more.
