It’s Getting Hot Down Here…

I’m staring at the thermometer and it reads 105 degrees -yikes!  Ah, New Orleans in summer (almost - tomorrow it’ll be official).   No way am I heating up the house by turning on the oven, so that means trotting down the street to the local seafood shop for freshly boiled Gulf shrimp.   A pile of boiled shrimp, some Abita Satsuma Harvest Wit and a crisp, cool salad of local cucumbers, tomatoes, onions and Greek-style Feta, should be just perfect as the sun and temperature drops.  You’re invited.

    Don’t complain about the heat, much better than forty below, twelve foot of blowing snow, and no seafood in sight. yes give me the heat any day, and fresh seafood oh what a treat.

    Yikes Cheft! Warm hugs from New Orleans. If and when you make a trip here, please let me know, we’ll dive in to some seafood together. I’ll even make you a cup of hot tea in lieu of a cold beer…if you want.
