Just wanted to say Hi, I'm new to the website chat, writing from New Orleans, Louisiana. I can cook Cajun anything from scratch. They say that we Cajuns will eat anything that doesn't eat us first, and this is true! I enjoy the outdoors with my dogs. I am currently building my bug out vehicle van conversion and have a lot of unique space saving ideas I am working on. I don't see live chat on here but I am happy to respond to messages. Maybe one day there will be live chat! Thanks for reading.
 
I love me some good Cajun food ;). Welcome from your your Texan neighbor.
 
Howdy from a Texan .... and welcome to the forum and family...there's quite a few knowledgeable folks here that'll gladly tell ya what you need to know,or at least point ya in the right direction and/or give ya a good idea or2..and by all means jump right on in with any replies you have on a topic.
 
Warm Welcome from the Arizona valley folks. :USA:
 
Not a lot past that line Rellgar. LOL

I'd eat an armadillo before I'd eat another coot. I'm the same way with Chinese (real Chinese) I love most of it but some things...just no...

My wife told me the Chinese have a similar saying: "We eat everything that flies except an airplane, and everything with four legs except a chair"

There is no telling what all I have eaten. Whenever I ask my wife what something is that I don't recognize, she says "JUST EAT IT."

I have some friends in China that sent me a picture of a buffet that had a turtle on its back. I asked her if she eats that and got a resounding NO, but most do....

Hey Danil54grl...I love your avatar icon...it reminds me of comedian Tim Hawkins song, Pretty Pink Tractor - - hilarious. I was in San Antonio for a conference in mid-February. I've done the drive to Houston a number of times over the years, because of the proximity to Louisiana. So, San Antonio was a leap frog further, not too bad of a drive. And my sister lived in Austin for 10 years - - she said the state capitol in Austin is a foot larger all the way around than the one in Washington DC when she gave me the tour, and she says, "Why? Because everything's BIGGER in Texas." :) Thanks for writing!

Welcome from another southerner.

Thanks Brent S... - boy a prepper and a Trekki - - it doesn't get much better than that! Live long and prosper! (PS I wore the red and black Star Trek uniform before the new generation series became hot on TV and people kept telling me it was the security uniform - - and they were always the first to get killed off in the episodes! And, I kept saying try not to bum me out, it's a Halloween/or Mardi Gras Party!) Thanks for writing!

Hi Jim, Thank you for the warm welcome. I am really looking forward to sharing ideas with fellow preppers and survivalists...it's been 14 years since I went through Katrina, and every day I learn something new that I know will be extremely helpful and practical. Looking forward to the community. Thanks for writing!

Welcome from Fin,

Hi Jontte, our public TV "Create" features some New Scan chefs and one, Sara La Fountain, whose family and roots are from Finland has some of the best recipes for seafood and rye bread. I love to watch those chefs preparing food outdoors (you can see it's cold and the wind is blowing their flames really hard sometimes, but the food looks wonderful!) Thanks for writing!

Welcome from a top secret location only 152 people know about. I too am Cajun and live I Louisiana, on the northshore. You can chat live in the shoutbox.

Thanks Rellgar - - (your secret is safe with me). Shout out to the northshore - - woop woop! (Note, when you're cutting the grass, watch out for the hornets that live in the ground on the northshore - - my cousin was on his riding mower in Covington and they swarmed him and a helicopter had to land on his property to take him to the hospital - - he survived, barely. He learned later from the exterminator that had to treat his lawn that there has been an increase of the ground hornets in that area.) Stay safe - - Be Well - - Thanks for the Welcome!

Hi Urbanprep - - you are nearest the RV mecca of the world - - wow! (I had to learn what RO water is from the full time RV'ers in some of the BLM areas in Arizona. When you are used to treated Mississippi River water you forget to contemplate where the water has to come from in other areas.) Stay cool! Thanks for the welcome!

Howdy from Georgia!

I love Cajun cooking, but I draw the line at poule d'eau gumbo :D

Some things just were'nt meant to be et.

Okay Dr. Henley, but its a little small to become duck l'orange. Small makes them harder to clean, but yes, they are meant to be et. Just be careful how you cook 'em, cher. Thanks for writing!

Thank you. I love my pink tractor. It was one way I thought I could keep my hunny off it. . . And not dent it up like his. I really like when he gets stuck in whatever he is using and I get to go pull him out. re

Everything is bigger in Texas. We had relative come in from Maine. Fixing scrambled eggs for breakfast and pulled out a goose egg. Hunny s cousin couldn't get over the size of our chicken eggs. ;)
 
G'day from Down Under - Cajun cooking! Well, I just got given a jar of Old Bay seasoning and a recipe for prawns/shrimp using it.
Be curious for a Cajun recipe for Kangaroo, Emu and Galah.
