276th New Thing - Ate at Lucile's

I received a $50 gift certificate to Lucile's for my birthday back in April. So we went there for brunch this morning. Lucile's is a creole cafe with 4 locations in the Denver area with the original restaurant opened in Boulder 32 years ago. The menu is adorned with a photograph of the owner and his mother Lucile, the restaurants namesake. Zydeco music was constantly playing through the dining room. There are Mardi Gras beads, alligators, masks, and Creole posters that they use as decoration. It has won local awards like "Best Creole Restaurant" by Westword Magazine. Since the wait was about 45 minutes, we started with a drink called Cuban OJ with orange juice, banana liquor, and lime. For breakfast, I ordered Cajun Breakfast (red beans with meat, poached eggs, and hollandaise with potatoes and a buttermilk biscuit for $7.80). Matt ordered Eggs Sardou (creamed spinach, Gulf shrimp, poached eggs and hollandaise with grits and a buttermilk biscuit for $10.30). There was also homemade ketchup, hot sauce, and jams at every table. Everything was very tasty. It was rich and filling, we were really full.

111th New Thing - Took a Zyrtec

If you recall, I went to the dermatologist to get a skin screening for the 1st time back in December. When I was there, the doctor did a biopsy of 1 of the moles on my back (which came back as normal, by the way). The area was healing pretty well until about 2 weeks ago. The area around the wound started getting bigger instead of smaller and oozing. Therefore, I went back to my doctor to check it out. She said I was having an allergic reaction to something, probably the Neosporin . She gave me some new ointment, Vanos , and said I should take Zyrtec until the area starts to get better. Vanos (fluocinonide) Cream is indicated for the relief of the inflammatory and pruritic manifestations of corticosteroid responsive dermatoses in patients. Best results are seen if used twice per day. Zyrtec (cetirizine) is an antihistamine that reduces the effects of natural chemical histamine in the body. Histamine can produce symptoms of sneezing, itching, watery eyes, and runny nose. Zyrtec can be u
