  6. Thank you all for the good wishes.

    Greg, all the way from Kent! Thanks for leaving a word.

    Renz, I listened to your song and loved it. The song speaks the truth.

    Counterlight, my family didn't do the black-eyed peas and cornbread traditional meal. Maybe that's why we've had such bad luck over the years. No, I'm not doing it, rather Grandpère is not doing it. I asked him if his mother cooked the dish, and he said no.

    He's been gone for a few days, and he said that I should post a picture of the inside of our refrigerator. I asked why. He said, "Because it's empty! You don't even shop for groceries when I'm gone". He's right.

  11. The News Year's Eve I spent in the Quarter years ago was hands down the wildest, and most crowded, I've ever experienced ;)

    Happy New Year, beloved Grandmère !
