A move, a meter, and a Christmas past
A MOVE: I moved a bunch of stuff yesterday. Today, it took me six trips to get finished. My bed is covered with stuff, but you know good and well my computer is set up! We are officially back “down the bayou”. And Camp Dularge is going up eight feet in the next week. Posts…
Will someone please name this spider for me?
I would like to know what kind of spider resides between the “honeysuckle gate” and my swing. Since I’m pretty lazy, could one of you please tell me what this is called? And whether or not it’s poisonous? There just might be something in it for you, too. However, since I don’t want to have…
We even eat that good claw meat!
I apologize if you are a person who chooses not to eat any kind of living creature. And if you are, it’s best you stop right now and read no further. Because, Crawdaddy was destined to be the star of this tutorial on cracking crawfish claws and eating the meat from them. Here he is,…
Cherry Books
No, these are not books about cherries. Rather, it is the name of the neatest bookstore in the town of Thibodaux, LA. Thibodaux is a great college town. It has lots of old architecture and a French feeling. It is the first city I lived in when I journeyed to South Louisiana in 1978 and…
Crawfish, Pirates, and Cows! Oh my!
Not sure how things are in your neck of the woods when it comes to Halloween, but it is a BIG holiday down the bayou. Some folks go all out and stuff clothing to look like real people and place them on their front porches. One family stuffed male clothing, added a milk-jug head, and propped the poor fellow on top of a riding lawn mower in the front yard. Porches are covered in spider webs. Yards are full of grave markers–some with names and messages.
I've said it before . . .
and I’ll say it again (at least once) . . ”Oh, a wondrous bird is the pelican! His bill holds more than his belican. He can take in his beak Enough food for a week. But I’m darned if I know how the helican.” PS: Mr. and Mrs. Painted Bunting are still hanging…


Have to disqualify myself from this one. I’ve got two myself. I hung one on the wall. I’ve also purchased this same item as a wedding gift for several fishermen and women.
Yep, I coulda guesses that! I haven’t used this one yet, so tell me, does the cornbread come out looking like fish?
That is a cast-iron cornbread pan, to make fishy cornbread! So kitschy! And so southern! I love it!
Isn’t it just the cutest thing? My friend from Mississippi came down last week and gave it to me as a “camp warming” gift!
BW your readers are just too smart to pull one over on!
By the way, thanks for letting me stay at Camp Dularge this weekend. I enjoyed the visit and the fun! You’ll soon be booked up with fisher men and women! What fun!
P.S. You might want to post a pic of that huge ‘gator we saw on our adventures for everyone to see.
You are very welcome! It was great having you! I thought the pics would go along with the “joint” sister post we’re supposed to write???
BW, the fish do come out shaped like a fish. Don’t expect to see all the details though. Just make sure to “season” that cast iron GOOD, even if it’s already pre-seasoned. When you fill the fish be careful not to over fill them. It’s much easier to remove the baked fish.
I love cast iron pans… anyone seen a pumpkin one?
