I didn't tell you on Saturday, March 29th, 2008, but if I was in picture # 1, I would totally jump on you. Also, if I saw you humping a hydrant, it would totally make me hot. And then at the cigarette machine, I would but us some Kools.

Isn't New Orleans amazing? I went there February '05 and the staff of the Holiday Inn in the Quarter were never the same afterwards.

2008-04-04T00:21:40.257-06:00

That, my dear, was fabulous.

I went to NO pre-Katrina, and I'm sorry to say it was still pretty grubby. But I LOVED the "to-go" cups for the drinkies, and what a great vibe that city has.

Thanks for the great share!

I felt like I was there, especially when you mentioned me ("deep-fried balls of doughy goodness"). *blush*

Hotard is perfect. I've always used the world pretard but this will serve an entirely different purpose.

How I wish I could go to someplace warm... How I wish I could have such a wonderful dinner... How I wish I could have a cold cocktail in my hand... How I wish my next half year wasn't so packed that I don't see enough time for a weekend away. :( You're one lucky woman!

Sounds like a fantastic trip. Glad to see it was warmer there than it was in Boston (or Minnesota)!

2008-04-01T13:08:40.988-06:00

I have often wondered about what N.O. was like now and if it was suitable for visiting yet. I think the Governor, the Mayor and the Tourism Council should give you a big fat paycheck for your review. Why? Because now I WANT to go there!

2008-04-01T12:02:09.987-06:00

Hotard is my new favorite word. Your trip sounds awesome...makes me sad we didn't end up going (I totally would have talked you out of the Steamboat ride), but now I have some great recommendations for when we finally make it down there.

NoLa is a special town. My husband and I recently considered a coffee table book made solely of pictures of trash cans in NoLa. Hmmm.

2008-04-01T09:05:25.486-06:00

So jealous.

I love your shoes in the fire hydrant picture by the way.

Now that looks and sounds like a fun time!

2008-03-31T21:58:34.969-06:00

Good Gracious! I think I just gained 10 pounds just reading this! and of course, now I can't wait to go someday! Sounds awsome!

So glad you got your luggage back too..

love the photo on the boat with the drink!

this trip sounds like so much fun. and i've stuck it on my list (right after Austin, TX and another return to Portland, OR)

2008-03-31T15:36:41.347-06:00

I know we went to Maspero's, but I can't remember what we got there. It's all a spicy, foody blur.
We also skipped Commander's Palace--next time try Antoine's for your foo-foo dinner. Soooo nice, but much more casual.
I'm a bit disappointed in your assessment of The Monde though. I am not sure I can read your blog with the same warm fuzzies anymore... ;) Beignets = heaven! (maybe it was just overhyped for you? admittedly I knew little of it before we went...)

Ah ha, some fab tips for when I head there next summer.

Thanks, WM. Glad you enjoyed your vacay.

Welcome back and thanks for the review! I'm all about smoking everywhere, but I do understand about everything being open-air. In the Midwest - it just can't happen!

2008-03-31T07:18:37.353-06:00

I, too, read it as "Hot Tard." In either case, it's a gem.

Glad you had such a good time—can't wait to hear more.

2008-03-31T06:25:58.234-06:00

Glad you liked your trip! We just got back last night, and I'm going through my sadness at leaving New Orleans, and my eagerness to start eating healthy again at the same time.

Great post, and it looks like you had a swell time. Glad you made it to the Spotted Cat--we spend most of our time listening to music on Frenchman Street when we go now.

2008-03-30T21:49:37.685-06:00

Wow, nice to be back here... ;) Had been running around the past days...and so so envious with you! I should travel soon! LOL

And, love the new insult word...I'm gonna steal that and try it soon! :P

Have a nice week!

I love all the food in New Orleans only I can't seem to consume shrimp with their funky heads on them.
