Siddity In The City: Mardi Gras

Mardi Gras

Beer, beeds, boobs and beignets. Hm. I swore I'd be in New Orleans for it this year, dammit. Instead, I'm working. Bummer. Maybe tonight I'll head on down to Delta Grill for the atmosphere. And the fatty cheese and crawfish pie with Abita. Then again, maybe I'll just get takeout...I'm not even sure they have beignets. Say, where can you get a beignet in this city? Acquiring one is my mission tonight. If I find one, there will be photos. No pictures of boobies or beads, though, so don't ask.

typical of this city, but there's gotta be a good beignet somewhere around here..
