I've only been to the Big Easy once, and that was for two days, but I had the exact same impression. Not just food-the whole place was one sensual experience after another. No accident that the wonderfully sexy jazz and blues started there.

My five things:

1. Speaking of said jazz, I've found several channels of soft, mellow, jazzy beats (there must be a word for this genre). Very MmmmMmmm!



2. I actually love the gift to myself of a cleaning day.

3. Tickets to the Van Gogh Experience-seems to be a huge immersive exhibit with his paintings set to music. A little costly, but my favorite artist and it sounded different! This will probably be on the list on Thursday.

4. I slept in and cuddled with Junie the cat

5. The wonderful chicken wings at my favorite Chinese restaurant. I'm going to find a recipe and see if I can do it myself (but there's nothing wrong with treating myself, either).
