Eating My Way Thru NOLA - Day 2

NOLA - October 2018
  • Café Du Monde (800 Decatur St, New Orleans LA 70116) - Café Au Lait and Beignets, only a 10 minute wait with some live music and well worth it!
          • Commander’s Palace (1403 Washington Ave, New Orleans LA 70130) - Soups 1-1-1 (Turtle Soup, Creole Gumbo du Jour, Soup du Jour), Commander's Crisp Romaine Salad, and Creole Tostada; and, of course, a 25¢ Martini (does it really matter what kind!). No wait for lunch today. All of it was delish and worth the dress code. 
          • Pat O'Brien's (624 Bourbon St, New Orleans LA 70130) - World Famous Hurricane!
          • Antoine's Restaurant (713 St Louis St, New Orleans LA 70130) - Oysters Rockefeller - baked on the half shell with the original Rockefeller sauce created by Antoine's in 1889.
          • Central Grocery & Deli (923 Decatur St, New Orleans LA 70116) - The Original Muffuletta Sandwich on a 9″ round Sicilian sesame loaf stuffed with ham, salami, provolone, and olive salad filled (kalamata, green olives, and other pickled veggies), oh so great!

          • Joe Gambino's Bakery (4821 Veterans Memorial Blvd, Metairie LA 70006) - Wanted the Chocolate Doberge Cake slice but got the Caramel Doberge Cake slice instead, very sweet!

          • Other snacks & gifts - Southern Candymakers Pralines (334 Decatur St, New Orleans, LA 70130) - got the variety gift box with Original Creamy, Chocolate, Rum, Peanut Butter, Coconut, Sweet Potato (I'm a PB girl, so PB was my fav).

          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...

          361st New Thing - Tried on Wedding Dresses

          I didn't have time to post the last night, therefore I'm posting this late as this occurred yesterday (Mon 10/15/12). My friend and I went to David's Bridal last night to try on some wedding dresses. I looked on their website a few months ago to get a feel of the type of dresses I like. There are 6 styles: Classic & Traditional, Chic & Modern, Elegant & Luxurious, Glamorous & Dramatic, Destination, and Reception. I like Classic & Traditional the best. There are 5 silhouettes to choose from: A-Line, Ball Gown, Mermaid/Trumpet, Sheath, and Short. I like A-Line the best. I'm considering straps or strapless. It took about 1.5 hours to try on 5 dresses. I liked 2 of the dresses I tried on, both were under $350. My goal is to find one under $200. Here is one of the 'favorites' that I saw online. It is hard to tell if I would or wouldn't like it on myself. What did you do today?
