GUMBO YA YA CARRIES ON CAJUN TRADITION


Joe Vuskovich brought fast-food Cajun to Lexington in 1989 when he opened several Jozo's Bayou Gumbo restaurants around Lexington and Yats Cajun restaurant in South Hill Station. He has moved to Indiana, but he gave his recipes to friend Greg Todd, who opened Gumbo Ya Ya last month.
It's at 1080 South Broadway, next to Buffalo Wild Wings. The menu at Gumbo Ya Ya features red beans, turkey creole, jambalaya, maque choux (Cajun succotash), spinach and mushroom etouffee, and white chili, all of which are served over rice or penne pasta. The only sandwich on the menu is the yatwich, a spicy sloppy Joe made with turkey and served over focaccia bread.
Hours are 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday through Thursday and 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. Friday and Saturday. Call (859) 252-9292."

Scream therapy

Just as I was beginning to doubt my sanity, I seemed to make progress. I have been unable to cough anything up for quite a while. Screaming at the top of my longs for sustained periods of time, seemed comforting. Please, that does not seem all that normal to me. However, soon thereafter, I was able to cough up some phlegm, and feel much better. I am not too please it is pink, and that can be a sign of congestive heart failure. But I did just down a bag of tarts n tinys.

It seems I have gas bloating. I wonder if it is causing pressure on diaphram? I bought some Milanta. will be taking Bismuth later too to ease, the "back up".

God I am old.

Lutherans and Catholics

I just remembered this. When I was in grad school, a fellow student told me he was asked "what's the difference between Lutherans and Catholics?" and his response was "Lutherans don't believe in Mary". He realized after he had said it that it was humorous, and he was right.

The Great Lutheran Mary Denialists.

CBS

Has CBS Become the Cry Baby System? It seems everytime they turn around they are apologizing for something - Janet's Boob, Outkast's Indian Dance...

I kind of want to try and start an outrage about something so I can see if it moves them to apologize.

• Price is Right keeps changing announcers.
  
• Dan Rather's suits are of mixed fibers.
  
• CSI seems to be on all the time.
  
• Everybody does not always love Raymond.
  
• The Survivor All-stars were not.
  
• The "eye" logo looks like a big breast with a nipple shield.
  
• King of Queens title makes me think it is about Drag Queens.
  
• Two and a Half men makes me think it is about a hermaphrodite.

Barber College

I have been mulling over a career change, and am thinking of cosmetology or barber college. I would use it as a path to salon owning. I know that a degree is not necessary, but it would be a goods insite into the business. The Barner school here is baileys, the Cosemtology programs are Kaufman, Lexington Beauty, and Central Kentucky vo-tech.

Not doing very well

I am not doing very well with my promise about the dogs. Boudain has not been out without a leash. I do not even let him free in the holey fence back yard.
nor very well on my Latin challenge.

Valentine's Day

Another profitable Valentine's day at the restaurant. As long as we do not get another ice storm. Last year was great, and would have been wonderful, but for a minor natural disaster. This year I hope to kick start my personal economy.

I have to admit, I got real tired of the complements I received on my valentines outfit. I am very lucky that I have a good eye for style, and color. I did not plan the outfit, through it together at the last minute, and you would think I was walking the runways in Milan. Carson would be so proud. It was a pretty simple outfit. A red blazer, a crisp white shit, black tuxedo pants and patent leather shoes.
accessories included a red bow tie, that was tied in a Windsor knot, stuffed through a one inch large pearl ring pin. A Pin that looked like a giant ring, placed where a tie tack would go. The Faux Pearl was the size of a marble. In the pocket I had a yellow flourish scarf, that ended up looking like a flower almost. As I was putting it together, this was the process. Out of shower "I think I have a red blazer...." I did, then got the shirt and pants and shoes together. Looking through my ties, I found the red bow. I then looked in the mirror, and felt I need to take focus away from all the red, the yellow scarf fit the bill perfectly. I then wanted a tie tack. I was in a hurry, I was not sure where my limited collection of tie tacks were. I did know where my box of jewelry I bought wholesale was. Then I saw the giant ring pin - and knew it'd be perfect for my use. Sure I do not want to seem immodest, but I was overwealmed with compliments, as though people were breaking doors down to give me one. I now know what it is like to be a pretty girl, constantly being hit on or complimented. You become numb.

Unity Anthem

Unity Anthem was written by a guy that I think I knew from HEAF. This guy is a broadway opera singer, Mike Zegarski was a singer. I saw his picture and it definately could have been him. I am thinking about emailing him for more infor about his anthem, and seeing if he recognizes the name.
