New Orleans School of Cooking

Today was our third visit to the school and it was fabulous. Our Chef, Ms.Pat gave a lesson in history that was so informative and fun, it was a joy to beĀ  here. The menu was out of this world and when it was over, everyone bailed out to shop in the store,

We had been here with two of our grown kids before and when they heard we were returning, we got their shopping lists. Shopping done.

Our menu today was:

Corn and Crab Bisque(recipe will be posted on our return home)

Shrimp Creole

Bananas Foster

Pralines

The Bisque was so good, second helpings were offered and accepted.

If you are planning on coming here, be sure to book your class online as soon as you know you will be here. That is how you are seated and you want to be able see all.

Uber Services, New Orleans

Well for those of you who use this service, forgive me for bragging rights with what I am going to say. We are new at this service.

This is the most wonderful, safe, clean and easy mode of travel ever. We used this two years ago through our son and found it to be great. So when we came here and after waiting a horrible amount of time in extreme heat, Don said ‘enough’. (well, maybe not exactly those words) He found out how to add the app for this service and we have thoroughly enjoyed safe, prompt and polite drivers for the past 4 days.

It is way too bad that Vancouver, B.C. Canada is so afraid of the taxi companies with their dirty cabs, mostly inarticulate and rude drivers that are on on the streets now and not allow the public, who have been wanting Uber to be on the streets, this service,

They can’t be that powerful or is it that the Government officials are afraid of losing the vote in the election if they were to say too bad, Uber is now allowed.

Clint and LaQwandra were two exceptional drivers for us. LaQwandra even brought Don his cellphone late last night, after it had fallen out of his pocket. When he realized he didn’t have it, he called his own cell number, she answered it and the connection was made. That is honesty at its best. And yes, she was rewarded.

Uber is the best mode of transportation and if handled properly through licensing, it is not a problem.
