May 2017 30 Day Rule/Focus Pix & Discussion

Just the kind of guy I am... how is the Mug treating you?

 

Far easier then me LOL

 

I know what you mean. Cute feller though. Must get that from his mom.

 

When Hurricane Katrina did her dance on New Orleans lots of folks fled. Some never came back. That got Cajuns requesting products at their new locations, and grocery stores. If you've eaten rice dressing like Popeye's Chicken sells, it's sort of a loose boudin. I've seen Zummo's brand outside of the state, not the best but acceptable.
Check the hamburger helper section for Zatarain's to make rice dressing or Dirty Rice.

The difference between dirty rice and boudin? The stuffed sausage shape and the quality of meat used. A good boudin, (like my home made) has pork shoulder instead of ground beef, plus a bit of beef liver, and onions cooked in.

 

Absolutely! and thank you!

 

When's the 30 DC barbeque/cajun cookoff/ice cream bonanza/musicfest going down? If we can get a distiller or somebody who makes craft beer to join this thread, this has the all makings of a good time!

 

Hold my Abita and watch this,,, I like it.

 

There are few places in Birmingham that serve boudin. It's good but I imagine the more authentic version is much better (as it usually is). I don't think I've had it with bits of liver and onion, and it's generally ground beef.

 

Personally I'd refuse to shave with anything that called itself STD.

 

New Shavy awards, nominees, etc. have been updated on the "big board". If you are not subscribed to and watching this thread you are subject to @RyX is giving you his biggest "DoH! ever, @wchnu chasing you around with a "stivette" in hand, @Drygulch teaching you to "finger shave (involuntarily), or @wristwatchb mocking you mercilessly. (OK, all of this is actually likely to happen anyway during MAYhem, but just join the dang thread so you don't miss out, OK)? Besides, you don't want to find out what @Bama Samurai means when he says he "walks softly but carries a big sword". Really. You don't.

 

How did I miss this!!!! LOL, exactly what I was thinking!

 

Welcome back, Neal! I am glad you are feeling better and will continue to pray for your recovery.

 

Beautiful picture, Mark!

 

Great brush, Doug! Wonderful scenery, too!

 

Great picture of your son!

 

Great set up on your shave! The brush handles look terrific!

 

Great picture, Clint!

Gillette Old Type
Stirling Unscented PSB
TSD Floid Blue Type AS

It was a quick shave this morning, but it was a DFS. Shave number two with a Sputnik blade, and the results were just as good as the first. This Old Type does a great job and let's me zip through the shave.

I was scheduled to be in California through tomorrow, but a meeting came up and my boss asked me to get back, so I am at the airport with about 2 hours to kill until my flight. The good news is I was supposed to get in somewhat late tomorrow evening. My daughter has a Sherlock Holmes production she is in at school, and I was going to miss it. Now, I'll get to be there. I hope everyone has been having a great day.

 

Thanks Jim!

Safe travels, and it looks like you've been working out!

 

Thank you Jim

What a great photo and travel kit. Have a safe trip back.
