Your book is truly wonderful and just captured everything that’s wonderful about New Orleans. I can’t wait to read more of your writing, and would love to know what you’re working on now. I’m so glad you’re back in New Orleans (Pableaux told me you were moving back!), since your love for the city rings so clear in your book. Best of luck to you, and thanks.

And I would love a recipe for red beans and rice if you have it. I’ve just ordered Camellia red kidney beans from cajungrocer.com, along with some Poche smoked chaurice (the right sausage or no?), and hope to make some.

Oh, and turkey bone gumbo…? I know you’re busy with moving, so don’t rush.

Thanks so much.

Jennifer

I was happy to read that you felt warmly received by the city. New Orleanians are so grateful to be seen and heard. It is still a beautiful city, but a broken one, and the healing process continues.

I was sorry to miss the conference myself, but I was in the middle of a move back down to New Orleans. I am here now.
