Ay, Chihuahua
I’m having one of those weeks where everything is whizzing by at warp speed. Ay! Easter is going to be here before we know it. I’m going to Texas to celebrate with my folks. I’m super excited to see them and hang out for a few days. It is going to be a nice little vacation. I’m keeping my sights set on good barbeque, great company, crafting time with my mami and time with our family dog, Dharma. She’s my dog by proxy, and is the yippiest, most annoying and most loved animal on earth.

This weekend I attended another fundraiser for work. Since I haven’t had ample time to craft this week, you get photos of the food from this event. I grew up eating gumbo and love southern cooking, but I’m not so sure about the crawfish. They tasted good, but really do look like giant cockroaches.
Then there was the fried alligator.
Anything this fried tastes just about the same to me — like a battered flip flop.
But that chicken and sausage gumbo smelled delicious. Yum!
And check out the great backdrop. Can you tell why this mountain is called Camelback? Such a pretty spring day in Phoenix. We’ve got to enjoy the great outdoors while we can. We’ll be hovering over our ACs before we know it. Gulp.
Cheers,

Mmmm, you’ve made me hungry for crawfish. On the weekends you can smell the neighbors having crawfish boils. I’ll bet those suckers cost an arm and a leg where you are! I prefer to think they look like little lobsters
Um, I was good with the crawfish until you made that roach reference. Yuck! Was that gumbo as good as it looks? Yum!
I love your blog. You take beautiful pictures. For some reason when I click on the pictures I always go to an error page.
Really shrimp is delicious-looking. I was visit you’re Blog to Random. Fortunately! This Blog’s Photos is Very good.
