Last week I had Popeyes on Verot School Rd in Lafayette twice. On Wednesday I had 2 piece white with RB&R. That was best chicken from Popeye's Ive ever had. Crispy and just the right spice and not greasy. Mentioned it to mgr that chicken was best I've had at Popeye's in a very long time. He gave all the credit to the guy breading the chicken. Went again on Sat to see if Wednesday was just a good day for them....again the chicken was fantastic!
PGA tour hid under the 501-C laws forever...now they aren't such a well-run company as most of you keyboard mutants think they are!
hiding under the 501C rules of the IRS made the Tour rich now they are for profit its a whole new ball game and in 5 yrs they can hid under Bankruptcy protection. Hope those guys who have built up a pension in the PGA system get their money out asap!
PGA tour golfer are in the mist of a caddy turnover...what 4 new caddies on new bags this week. Ted Scott is not going to put up with Scottie's Bubba Watson 2.0 behavior! Stay tuned!
Peyton Houston finished 2-3rd according to most analyst at the event! Haven finished 5-6 by analyst. Nebraska commit Taylor consensus #1. Hope he stays injury free this year.

re: Crawfish Étouffée

I make a crawfish stock ...5lbs of peeler heads from a peeling plant...boil with 2 gallons of water ..onions, celery and garlic ...1/2 cup of crab/crawfish boil powder...cook for 1hr then use my 1/2hp immersion blender and grind da shite out of it shells and all...then use fine mesh strainer to extract the best tasting stock for a great etouffee. I use crawfish puree from Teche Valley Seafood ..1 8oz tub for 2 lbs of tails which I only get from CJ's seafood (they have alot of fat in the tail meat best of anybody) ...then follow recipe they have on their package ....this is the recipe for the winning Etouffee at the Etouffee Cookoff in Eunice ! The stock make gallon and half of stock ...freeze it in 10 oz portions for future use.
No Alex doesn't get an invite to the Masters with this win!
You guys are missing the point in 2 years the PGA tour will look completely different from what it is this year. Start after Super Bowl with 22-24 tournaments not including the 4 majors ending with the Tour Championship in a Major City (not Atlanta) before the start of football season. 7 months !!! Lots of tournaments are going to get wacked... like the New Orleans event.

This year on Thursday 2 people from LAFAYETTE went to Masters on Daily Ticket that one of them had won in Lottery. Ticket winner went in at 7am and then traded out with his buddy at 1ish ... buddy went in and stayed till 6:45 ish.... when buddy was leaving and just yards beyond the entrance gates, he bent over and took his cell phone out of his sock. In plain view of a security guard. He was detained and was found to be in violation of the golden rule at Augusta National...NO CELL PHONES...Report was made and he was told that he was banned from Augusta National Property forever (his name was on lottery list too and that it will be removed). The Daily Ticket winner is also banned for ANGC Property too and his name removed from Lottery. They have rules and it applies to everyone! The Daily ticket winner is a well know person is the Lafayette Medical Community!

Hope Ur wife's recovery is complete. I she had breast cancer I would hope y'all found Dr. Trahan in NO at the Center for Breast Reconstruction. Only center in US dedicated to just breast cancer.

We all judge pork chops against Perry's Steakhouse which is really a high mark to achieve!

Ate at Charly G's for 2nd time in a month...man is that place overrated. this is my rating of our 2 visits. 5 Star Rating Scale
Gumbo- 3-star
Wedge Salad- 2-star (please use iceberg lettuce instead of bad romaine lettuce)
Crab cakes- 0-star (this was no bueno)
Moroccan spice Yellow fin Tuna- 2-star (fish has to be star of dish it isn't)
Pasta of Day- 4-Star
Pan seared Black Drum with kale and sweet potato puree 2-Starr (again fish is the star, and they kill fish with too much unnecessary flavors)
Lucky we are traveling to NO this week to eat at GW Fins (this week they have dry aged Blue Fin tuna) and in 2 weeks will Dine at Halls Chophouse in Charleston SC ..Lafayette Dinning Scene is weak except for Poseidon's, Cugino, Mazen Grill and Sydnie Mae.

Your price per bottle is on the very low side! More like 1000,2500,2500 and 1300 !
Aberg will have a long session with Dr Rotella and he will get him straighten out in time for Augusta!
