I missed this. What happened? Whom did you lose? My neice is dying and she wanted to see all of us one last time. I think I remember you going to visit her fairly recently, right? A living wake sounds kind of wonderful, all things considered.

Dinner tonight was sauteed sweet Italian sausage with onions, peppers, and mushrooms with steamed fresh green beans. Earlier this afternoon, our daughter and granddaughter stopped by to wish me a happy Father's Day and dropped off a couple of containers of my favorite locally made ice cream. I'll be having some here shortly while watching the Yankees vs Red Sox game. Summertime!

She's 71, lost both legs to diabetes and her entire abdomen is eaten up with cancer. She can go at any time so she wanted to see all her cousins, (and uncle) one more time. We'll see her again in the blink of an eye.

My neice is dying and she wanted to see all of us one last time. I am sorry about your niece. Always tragic when a young person is gone too soon. Not so young John. My neices and nephews are mostly around my age as I was the surprise 8th kid. At the table with me are 66,61,65,62,and 62. 63 and 58 went home already. 76 and 73 couldn't make it. Not in this group are 86,79, and 75. There's more, but you get the picture.

Guys, thanks for the condolences, but today was more of a celebration of a life, with the guest of honor still with us. She laughed a lot. Very few tears.

Supper was the two chicken thighs cooked with Korean Gochujang Sauce and sat in the refer in it for some days. I added sliced ginger and tamari sauce to make it more liquid. It was better than good. Napa Cabbage and asparagus stir fry on the side.

80 degrees feeling like 90 here in the Hammond Louisiana Cracker Barrel. Scrambled eggs, bacon, hash browns and biscuits and gravy. Dang coffee you can see through. Looks like tea. Sad.

We bought a bucket at a KFC in the low country of North Carolina near the border with South Carolina. It was so incredibly good it was hard to stop eating it. The store was staffed by older ladies. We could taste the pride they had in their chicken. This was in 2002. Other than that it is usually OK but not great. I had one order with the interior of the chicken breasts and thighs still frozen. Inexcusable. I was sorry the Colonel sold his company to the corporate stooges. Contrast this with In N Out Burger. Still family owned and generally considered the best FF burger chain in the Nation.

Lunch is some fresh smoked boudin we picked up at a gas station/Cajun meat market in Avoyelles Parish, where my family has lived for over 325 years. It's really good!

Lunch was Navy Beans with ham shanks to which was added chopped green chilies. Something I recommend. On the side, a red chile pork tamale made by the Tamale King of Albuquerque. My last one. Have to obtain more. i cannot help thinking that one of these tamales and one of Ron's Boudins would make an excellent meal.
