Thank You Baby Jesus!

Man, we finally got some rain today. For a week now it has been threatening, rumbling and bumbling out there, the whole time feeling like a big, warm, wet, sha-nay-nay and finally it came a falling.

So, I get back to the office today, sopping wet from the inundation and all I can think about is how delicious and warming my hot lunch will be today. Braised cabbage and turnips with smoked sausage, some regular ol' white rice and a modified succotash of garden fresh lima beans, yellow sweet corn, okra and tomatoes. That and a bottle of Trappey's Red Bull Louisiana Hot Sauce and I am a very happy man.

I heat it up in the microwave 'till its nice and hot and sterilized, give it a good stir, shake way too much hot sauce on there and begin to eat. It was fabulous, that is until I nearly broke a tooth on a bone chip or a tiny piece of gravel in the sausage and one bite later I ladled up a big black bug of some sort.

For crying out loud! Is there a full moon out or something??

Guess I should have gone to Taco Bell instead.
