My friend Antony sent me this. Words of Cajun wisdom from the deep south of America, and two interesting old characters.

Not them. I was five or six, followed my Ozarks grandfather around while he hunted squirrel. I have eaten squirrel chili. Gumbo has always been one of those things I avoid. Just looking at it you have to wonder what’s in it.

What characters! I kept thinking “he’s an old man” but then realised that I am older! I shall not be trying out his recipes any time soon! There are some very interesting people in this country, that’s for sure.

Cajun Country always provides colorful characters and quality food…but I would leave that latter thought with seafood and chicken. Some of those other selections are definitely not on my menu!

I would probably eat squirrel, but perhaps not the brains! 🙂
