Ginger snaps

Oh snap...ginger style : D

March 2011 The Egg New Orleans Getaway!


The EGG Nola Getaway

The Bead shop across from the French Market downtown. A very chill cat while you check out with local artwork or some unique stones : 3
A love connection by the crescent city connection
I think we're laughing at a bird in the river in this one.
Cuddle bugs
Oyster season finally begins!
Great micro brews at the Crescent City Brewhouse
A little table convo on the patio
What to put in my belly...
Giganto koi at the insectarium butterfly room


Talking to David the ambassador for the insect pin room

Mosquito at the Insectarium swamp room! I love these guys in the D.W. kettle pond!


Mom touches a hissing cockroach
A quiet nite at Cure with unique drinks


Discovered this funny at the Garden District book store

All the great works of Roald Dahl. I'd like to read "The Witches". I loved the movie.
This title also looks good. I would be interested in "Lucy's Home For Girls Raised by Wolves" too!
The cover of this book is so cool. It just pops.
The prytania graveyard. Many passings in New Orleans were from yellow fever, which gave New Orleans its name "Necropolis of the south=city of the dead" due to the hundreds of deaths in the 18th and 19th century. (Thanks for the mosquito lesson, Insectarium)


The Latter Library brand on St.Charles. A old house renovated. It's my favorite library.



Ninja sushi! We checked out this quirky gem because mom loved the sign. I'm glad she did!


It was a great visit. Mom & Stephen, I love you both so very much.
Namaste : )

Spring Adventures


Here's a few of my adventures I've been meaning
to add.
Life's been pretty good : 3




Saw this cool excerpt at Octavia Books when shopping for Llewe's baby book


We said goodbye to the little chevy and....
Hello to "Boudreaux" the big Dodge Ram 1500!!

The Parcel and Post's Mr Bobo, he just walks around the shop as you send packages.

Fantastic Jaime Hayes creatures at my favorite local post shop: Parcels and Post

One of my favorite treats, yummy tea!
I recently got a cute thermos from Whole Foods plus delicious vanilla almond and lavender honey!









New shoes!! Finally found some sporty boat shoes by keds. Here's to strolls with skirts and dresses!

The sights off of river road: quaker parrots and horses : )


The quaker parrot condos at the end of river road and oak, there's eight of these on this tower alone!

A look at the garden district from the roof!




Cleo the calico stray on Phillip street. Otto and I visit her on on our evening walks. She drools more than Bello does! Didn't think that was possible. She has one green eye and one blue. A real sweetheart, she's so small and cute.







The funky architecture that makes New Orleans GREAT!





Feeding the pigeons and sparrows the leftover bread from my yummy, favorite starbucks treat: a cheese danish!!
The birds loved it as much as I did!
