How many lsu fans were there?


Here with sonus. Less than 50 I'd say
We go traditional for Thanksgiving, but not Christmas. Baked ham for Christmas Eve lunch, chicken and sausage gumbo for Christmas Eve dinner, and spaghetti and meatballs for Christmas day. This has been for as long as I can remember, and I wouldn't want it any other way.

My husband and I just moved here recently, so we are still exploring, but I can name some places we've liked. All of these are in the downtown area or close by (and in no particular order)

Alleia or Boccaccia (both Italian)
Bluewater Grille (steak/seafood)
Bluegrass Grill (great brunch)
Champy's (yummy fried chicken)
The Terminal Brewhouse (get the pot roast nachos if you go here--so good!)
Blue Plate as someone else mentioned
FoodWorks (we went for dinner, but they are supposed to have an awesome brunch as well)
Lupi's Pizza (they use fresh, local ingredients)
Big River Grille & Brewing (same owners as Gordon Biersch)

If you want a dessert spot, The Hot Chocolatier is really good (and located across the street from The Terminal).

How has Pitch Perfect not been mentioned yet?! Filmed on LSU's campus; so many recognizable spots!

BR king cakes aren't that good compared to Nola.


I like Calandros (esp. the Italian king cake) for Baton Rouge, but you can buy Nonna Randazzo's king cakes from Carnival Mart by Cortana Mall.

You were way off.




Yea, that's it. Thanks.

Did you do a search or check your history?


I did, but because of time constraints I jumped out and I guess not in history because I didn't finish game.

The search didn't go well. That all I remember seeing besides the Toonces logo.

So I'm out two ways here. Hopefully someone will recognize and be able to help.
Had the Toonces Logo and I believe it was named something like "acoasta" with some numbers; please help. Would like to join.

PS3 btw. BF3.

Bump...if you're in the Slidell area today, please consider helping out this awesome family. And from what I hear, you'll get to eat great food in the process!

I also edited my original post to include information on items being raffled off at the fundraiser. Thanks!
If you will be in the Slidell area today (June 12th) and are looking for place to eat, please consider helping out the Scott family by going to Peck's Seafood(or passing this information along to friends and family in the area). You can read Amber's story and the fundraising information below.

Amber Rabalais Scott is a 29 year old mother, wife, daughter, sister, niece, cousin and friend to so many people. On May 22, at 38 weeks pregnant, her husband Tommy arrived home from work to find her unresponsive. She was rushed to Slidell Memorial where she delivered by Csection a beautiful, healthy, 6.5# baby girl, Adeline Elizabeth. She was then operated on to remove a blood clot from her brain. On May 24, still not having seen her daughter, she was transferred to West Jefferson Medical Center for more tests. The doctors there removed a portion of her skull to allow for swelling of her brain due to fluid. She is now in ICU fighting to get home to her new baby girl.

June 12th-Peck's Seafood and Poboys of Slidell is hosting a fundraiser from 11am-8pm on all dine-in and take-out orders. Matt Pecoraro, has agreed to donate 30% of all sales to Amber's fund. Also, an original painting by local artist Phil Galatas will be on display and raffled off. Tickets are $5/chance.

You can follow the story on facebook by liking "Amber's Prayer Team". Amber is truly a wonderful person and her and her family need lots of thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. Thanks for reading!

ETA:
Raffles for today's fundraiser so far: 3 pairs of tickets to Colbie Caillat and Gavin Degraw concert June 21st along with a meet & greet, original Phil Galatus painting, Creative Cookie of Slidell gift certificate, 4 person swamp tour, gift certificate from Thatz A Wrap, gift basket from Bella Style Salon, Berry Tart gift certificate, Salles Jewelry gift certificate, gift certificate from For Our Girls (children wear), signed Swamp People hat and shirt! Lots of good things! Don't forget $5 dollars for 1 ticket or $25 dollars for 6 tickets!

Ahh, gotcha, thanks! I was thinking of the Durkee brand seasoning products and thought maybe you forgot to say which seasoning, ha!
