I think our rain has finally left for a while, the sun has been out
for a few days now.
Finally got my air conditioner in, you can't breathe in this state if
you don't have A/C...even Georgette's little feathers were wilting!

Cajun Jokes
Q. What's the difference between Cajun zoos and other zoos?
A. In front of each exhibit, other zoos have a plaque with the name

Kitchen And Household Tips:
The skins from garlic cloves will slip right off if you place the
garlic clove in the microwave for 15 seconds.
When cooking with garlic cloves, pierce each one with a toothpick.
This makes them easy to retrieve especially in a sauce.
To revive wilted parsley or dill, place in cold water for 10 to 15
minutes
Place Bay Leaves in kitchen drawers and in flour/sugar containers to
keep crawling insects away
