I took my camera to New Orleans for Thanksgiving, then realized I didn't have a memory card. Shoot!
I had a great week. I feel good and rested, as I should since I slept about 11 hours per night and had to force myself up every day. The week went a little something like this:
Kyoto
Creole Creamery
Bryston's
St Joe's Bar
Rocky's Pizza
Prytania for The Blind Side
Dirty Coast, Storyville, and Magazine Street Shopping
Black and Gold Store
Mosca's
New Orleans Daquiris' x 2
PJs
CCs
Gluttony to the max!
I brought back 10 pounds of big shrimp, fresh off of the boat- at $2.50 a pound fresh, I dare you to find better food anywhere in the US. It must be my turn to host a dinner party.
The city is alive with Saints magic! I am sad to say I have not seen a game since Hurricane Katrina, and at $900 a pop (yes, that is the current going rate for a seat at tomorrow's game) I guess I will not be seeing them play this year. I also don't think I can upgrade my Aaron Brooks jersey to Drew Brees, as the kid's jerseys were $55 each, and I am just too thrifty to pay for the inflation that comes along with a winning season. 
So maybe I will get a WWBD shirt instead.
