My grandparents and great aunts & uncles say "New Awlins.". NO one around here says "New OrlEEns", that's just wrong. I say "New Orlins".. Except I sound like such a hick when I say anything. ha.


No no no no NO tomato sauce in gumbo. No no. -shakes head vigorously- No.


HAHA Texaschickmama. That's for sure. I'd keep that on the down low if I were you.

I am in Northeast La. now but am originally from about an hour north of New OrLINS. Somebody left out good ole ULM. Thanks for the info on NSU ... never heard of it.


I LIKE tomatoes in my gumbo lol. Not many people up here put okra in it and that is just WRONG! It has to have okra. I like lots and lots of okry.

I have family in Baton Rouge and Kentwood (right down the road from the lovely Spears family

)

I sound like a major hick too. People from other non LA places say I have a huge hick accent. Seems they all expect me to talk with a cajun accent and I soooo don't.

hahaha Glad you like it. I'm tempted to do that on my next test.. My mom would kill me when she went to grade it though. haha




Menkot - Oh yeah, okra is a MUST!


All of us Louisianians should get together and hang out and talk chicken and FOOD!
