Hearty Jambalaya Recipe - Allrecipes.com

This is the recipe, and I added some chicken broth to make it a little more stewish. Served it with brown rice and a green salad.
Yum. Broth always makes it better.

I made gumbo once, years ago. It was meh, but I was a less experienced cook so that could have been the problem. I remember slicing the okra ... wow, it was slimy. Slimy evil death pods.

I took my almost 2 year old to a construction site. She loves construction equipment especially cranes. We got to see an excavator (just learned the name of that thing) do some work on a barge floating in a canal. The driver made a big splash for us and then waved. My daughter kept on saying over and over "Man! Man! Work!" pointing at the driver.

When we had dinner, my husband asked what we did that day. I told him we went to see cranes. He asked "Birds?" and she said "No. Crane." Ha! Ha!

Just wait till you get to run some of that stuff.

Crane operators are about half crazy... Running the engine full throttle running out line and setting the end right at the riggers hand.

Sounds like a future construction engineer, especially if she ends up having a knack for math
