That's funny about the artichoke that's one of my favorite vegetables...Oh-- we like to drive Washington people crazy when they ask directions here--that's why we don't give the distance in miles HA!HA!HA!. Thank you for sharing those and take care.

You know you're at home in New Orleans when...
...you not only can say "Tchopitoulas" (pronounced CHOP-uh-TOOL-us), you can say it without laughing.
...you know exactly what you're going to eat for dinner next Monday. And the Monday after that. And after that.
...you refer to items of a certain hue as being "K&B purple".
...you not only think purple, green, and gold look good together, you'll even eat things those colors.
...you've discovered that those four-inch long ****roaches can fly, but you've decided to keep your sanity anyway.
There's more, but I don't remember all of the list.
