<p>Well wag those crabs look yummy! Looks like your grand daughter is up to the task of helping out to cook those crabs!</p>

<p>my daddy and mother had rented a house in Houma, La. Our land lord and land lady were true Cajuns! They had the family name of Theriot. Mr Theriot had his on commercial shrimp boat and when he would come in off of one of his trips from the gulf we would have a feast! his wife would come over to our house and notified that her husband had just contacted her from out in the gulf and he would be arriving mid afternoon. Mrs. Theriot would then start a big fire underneath a large black cauldron full of water. She would then go and pick her husband up off of his boat and they would come back with all of these fresh crabs, shrimp, oysters. Man!Talk about a feast! Of course we were quickly educated on how to cook crab and how to eat them! Great people!!</p> Jeffery,

<p>Jeffery,</p>
<p>All of those dishes sound great!Man! Those BBQ`d shrimp really make me 'homesick"!! During my college years at Louisiana Tech I had a buddy that was from Weeks Island,La. which is really " South Louisiana"!! He and and his wife would go home on a long weekend and come back mid afternoon on Sunday and start preparing the fresh shrimp that they brought back! He would start from scratch concocting his shrimp boil spices! He would invite my wife and I to come down to their place…</p>

The next evening we would be invited to come down for a treat of " Butterflied" shrimp!!</p>

<p>LOFR,</p>
<p> All of that good food is great! You are certainly lucky to have a wife that makes a great etouffee!</p>
<p>Now red beans and rice is another "animal"!! My mother was a great cook during her lifetime on this earth, and red beans and rice was one of her great meals that we boys and my daddy used to " pig out"!</p>
<p>LOFR are you still working or retired?</p>
<p>Thanks again for the invitation to come down! I will probably take you up on that!!</p>

<p>Sam, I'm not a true Cajun but I grew up down there and it's in my blood. I do the shrimp and crawfish boils and I make a mean red beans and rice, I do some creole but my wife makes a great etouffee . I cook bluegill both Southern style and sometimes with a tempura batter, both are excellent. Come on down and we will cook something LOFR</p>
