Bayou Woman heads to Batavia, NY to share a story in photos of her life in Bayou Country.

Many of you newer readers have no clue how this blog about Life in the Louisiana Wetlands came to be or why anyone would even care to write or read about such things.

Tired of chilly weather? Many of us are home due to icy or snow-laden roads. What better to do than make big pot of something warm to make staying home worthwhile?
