And Just Like That....

 

....we were finished. At almost exactly 12:00 noon we put in the last stinking plank. We are battered and bruised but elated that for the most part the really hard work in the kitchen is finally done. 




I didn't waste a minute messing up my new floor. I put some Hoppin' John in the crockpot and.......




.....mixed up a bucket of beignet dough.




Kitchen or no kitchen, I wasn't letting another Mardi Gras get away. Laissez le bon temps rouler and all that. Everything is better covered in a pile of powdered sugar.

    I know how excited you both must be to have all of these huge jobs done and dusted. I can't wait to see all of the "after" photos.

    Would you believe I've never had a beignet? Someday I'm going to have to go to New Orleans and go to that famous restaurant that makes them.
    I am SO happy that you have the kitchen pretty much done.
    Blessings,
