Tuesday's child is full of....of....of BEER!  Yeah that's it - now we remember the poem!  And what a coincidence - today is Tuesday and we usually act like children!  For us, Tuesdays are normally sorta nothing days - just 24 hours jammed in between Monday Night Football and Wednesday/Humpday!  Well, that may be true in most parts of the world, but in the French Quarter Tuesdays are just like any other day - drunk and disorderly!  Have we told you how much we LOVE New Orleans!

We rolled outta bed somewhere mid-afternoon and met up with our friend from Mississippi, Jason, for lunch.  You gotta realize that when the three of us get together lunch is always swallowed, but never chewed - primarily because it's served in a glass!  By the time the sun was low in the sky (after two or three or ten glasses of lunch) we were singing Christmas carols and discussing whether China should be a full voting member of the U.N. Security Council.   It wasn't pretty, so we left Jason for a bit to find some solid food, but that turned into a liquid dinner at another fine dining establishment.

When you really think about it - beer does occupy several levels on the USDA Food Pyramid.  It's a grain product (barley), it has a vegetable in it (hops), it contains lots of water so helps with that eight glass a day requirement and the alcohol provides some carbohydrates!  It truly is a "complete" food.  With that careful scientific analysis completed we were much more comfortable having it both as our lunch and diner meals.  The day ended with us....ah....hmmm...er.....not sure how it ended, but tomorrow is Wednesday (HUMPDAY - YEAH!) and also Thanksgiving Eve, so God only knows what will happen...

      
A six-pack for lunch seemed like the right thing to do.                   Add a few test tubes of Jagermeister & it's a meal!

      
We liked lunch so much we had the same thing for dinner!                       Pam at Acme Oyster House gave us food that you chew!
