Yesterday was a very traumatic day for me. I accompanied 43 – 6th graders (trauma enough) from Lake Harbor Middle School on a field trip to Mandeville Junior High, where they will attend next year. I felt bad for all the kiddos I was with because the other 285 – 6th graders attending, were from …

That’s it – I’ve had it with all this “Princess of Positive” crap! For now on I am going by the name “Queen of Doom and Gloom.” Having to look at the glass as half-full is for idiots, morons, and losers. Face it – life sucks and it sucks even worse if you – the …
Googled yourself lately? Come one, fess up, I know you have! Have you done it without quotation marks, with quotation marks, including your hometown? Does it give you a rush to know that you have some place on teh internets (not a typo)? Does it validate your existence – if so, you are as pathetic …

* Maybe some of the ideas I blurt out on the blog aren’t so bad. The other day I said we needed a “LA LOL Animal” site and lookie here…reader CB made the first 2 evah!!! Start sending them in so I can catalog them and if someone wants to start a site for them, …
Me & the rugmonsters will be heading home from Boston at 2:00 on Friday afternoon. We had a good time, but there is no place like home! Can’t wait to get back to Louisiana!!! For any SNL fans – Sully & Denise are Boston classics! Certainly worth a watch!
I want to begin my post (a column for the internet that does not go into print and allows comments with the reader and author – that is my definition) by saying that I am humbled and honored to have my blog read by anyone! Kiss My Gumbo is a fun blog and will continue …

Community Coffee vs. Dunkin Donuts is what I’m talking about here. You see, if you have been neglectful in reading KMG this week, you may have missed that I am up in Boston (Bahstahn) now, visiting family for a week. I am convinced that Bostonians have a coffee addiction problem worse than any state in …
I can see it now…crawfish, nutrias, gators etc… For those of you who haven’t the foggiest what I am talking about, click here or here. ***if you are a NOLA.com reader, please stop over and visit my personal blog . I would love to have SOME idea how many people actually visit KMG in one …
Yes, Peeps are “wicked awesome†(I am in the Boston area visiting with relatives this week and I could also add “pissa†to “wicked awesome,†but my NOLA.com bosses may not understand the New England verbiage and find it offensive). They are chewy, delicious and you can feel the sugar granules in between your teeth. …
An oldie but goodie video I had to share!
Traveling from New Orleans to Boston today was problem free. A mild inconvenience in Charlotte, which if I chose to get bumped, we would have ended up with 4 free tix. But you know the deal, the next flight will be delayed and the luggage would be lost (with our jackets) – so…NO DEAL (but …
Right now I am busy packing for myself and the rugmonsters. We are going to have one of those “visiting family” vacation in the Boston area. No white sand and umbrella drinks for this camper (give me a big – poor Greta – please). BTW, it is FREAKING COLD there! Look at the forecast below …
Recently, in the Times-Picayune, we have had headlines about people in the school systems getting arrested for “inappropriate & sexual” contact with minors. I will put my humor aside for this post and would like to give big kudos to everyone who is helping taking these predators down. There is the Destrehan band teacher in …
Every year my #2 son builds a leprechaun trap and every year the litter bugger trashes my house! Always leaving green pee in my toilets, knocking over furniture and making a huge mess (hard to tell if he actually did it this year-yes, my house is that bad!), dropping some loose change or gold dollar …
Yesterday we had our neighborhood association Easter Egg Hunt. I somehow promised my kids the St. Patty’s Day parade at noon and that we would be back for the hunt by 3:00. Honestly if I can get back from a St. Patty’s Day parade (that was not finished) in Metairie on time – anyone can …
