i just had some killer jambalaya. for those of you who don't know what that is, it's a cajun dish closely linked to paella. you get some chicken, sausage, bunch of spices, some veggies, some rice (but not too much..be responsible! we have a shortage!) and put them all together in a pot and let that bad boy simmer. it's strong, but very enjoyable.
i made some garlic bread with this...but a little bit of butter on it. then i got some lemonade, sliced up some limes and mixed them into the pitcher. it was a great summer lunch. while i was enjoying this dish on the patio, someone on the local college radio decided to play an hour of Wolfgang Voigt projects. Love Inc, Burger Ink, Gas, MI5, Wassermann, All....they were all there. why am I sharing this? because i want to. i don't care if it's off topic. okay, you want some on topic related material? I thought about the Detroit Red Wings over lunch and how they came close to blowing it last night. There. There's some Detroit content. so I ask the mailing list: what's your favorite jambalaya recipe? do you have one? if not, you should. no person should go through life without sampling this treat of a foodstuff. thanks. go red wings.
