Food

Hi, Everyone -


That's right. It's that time again - time to decide what we shall feast on next week. Suggestions mentioned last night: 2nd Annual Breakfast for Dinner, Finger Foods (to get ready for the March Madness Munchies), and Green Foods (in honor of St Patrick's Day).


Other ideas to keep in mind: March is National Frozen Foods Month, and March 5 is National Cheese Doodle Day.


All ideas welcome.

Good looking group!

For you Monty Python fans out there

Those of you familiar with The Life of Brian will probably also be familiar with the firestorm of controversy that it set off, especially the end. In the latest edition of The Onion's AV Club (not the satirical part), John Cleese sat down for a candid interview.
Among many other things, towards the end of the interview he addresses what the Pythons were really trying to say with regards to Christianity in the movie:

AVC: Speaking of wickedness, when you were shooting Life Of Brian, were you concerned with the fate of your immortal soul?

John Cleese: No. No, because it's not in any way against Christ or Christ's teachings. It's all about criticizing people who make something of Christ's teachings, which I think he himself would not recognize. There's a lovely line that an idea is not responsible for the people who hold it. A lot of people in America who describe themselves without any hesitation at all as Christians are, in my opinion, completely missing the point of most of his teachings.

See the rest (2nd page of interview) here. I'm neither condoning or objecting to his views, it's just interesting.

Wed night once again

Hello all,
Martha and I will fix a gumbo- Umm, Ummm.
Good to back where it doesn't snow. More later on Fat Tuesdays or Ash Weds. By the way, Mobile AL also claims to be the first in Mardi Gras. phil

Food on Wednesday!

Our fearless leader has declared this month's theme to be Fat Tuesday on Wednesday. That's right, we're flip-flopping the traditional church calendar and celebrating Mardi Gras on Ash Wednesday. Possible food: anything Cajun or any culinary indulgences you might be giving up as we head into the Lenten season. Jessica and Patrick might have helpful hints for anyone looking for low-maintenance Cajun dishes. Sooo, this month, we're going to try managing the food night from the blog. Instead of receiving countless emails, simply leave a comment for this post, indicating 1) Will you be there? and 2) What shall you bring? See you all on Wednesday night!
