Hi all,
This will be a re-awakening of the Mardi Gras cajun-creole musicale and food exchange-feast/fest
(here is a link to previous versions:
http://www.lthforum.com/bb/viewtopic.php?p=365590#p365590with a Roadfood crossover (I'm also inviting some Roadfood friends)
I will be making my semi-famous Jambalaya
You should make or bring something Cajun, Creole or something to drink or snack on
Just post what you want to bring so we can keep it balanced.
My house is not gigantic, so we should probably not let it get much beyond 30ish people.
My husband will likely round up some musician types for some music, so if you play,
bring your instrument along. (we already have a baby grand), and many guitars.
Recap: it will be Sun Feb 23, from 3-7 ish
