I'm hosting a brunch for the Butter and Eggs Day parade! Afterwards we will go downtown and watch the parade from the beer garden. I'm excited!
1You are totally missing The Jazz and Heritage Festival in New Orleans, which is this weekend and next. Although people come for the great musical acts, which include Billy Joel, Sheryl Crow, Tim McGraw and Jimmy Buffet, people plan their trips around the more than 40 food vendors that showcase some of the best foods from Louisiana. These include cochon de lait poboys, crawfish bread, stuffed artichokes, and just about anything else you can imagine!
