What's on the menu for everyone today??
To celebrate our 46th anniversary today (John F. Kennedy day), I'm making gumbo and potato salad. Found out from another forum that it is the natural accompaniment to gumbo down here in Louisiana. Some add to the gumbo at serving and some enjoy as a side. And bubbly, of course!!

Happy Anniversary! Enjoy the bubbly.
Well, for the first time ever horse racing is being held down at Del Mar (San Diego) in the fall. With the closure of world famous Hollywood Park last year the whole So. Cal. racing calendar has been rearranged. Sooooo, we are going today and they are having a food truck festival. If all goes according to plan I will be getting a lobster roll from the Lobsta truck and who knows what else.

And wine and sun - doesn't get much better! But I did just realize my jockey Mike Smith (Zenyatta's jock) is racing in a big race in Louisiana today. Oh well, can't have everything.
