It may just be the best Christmas present ever! With a combination of intrigue and suspense, Amanda surprised me with a series of clues that led me toward the identity of my gift. I learned that an adventure was coming my way … a trip … one that involved flights no less. I learned that we would be eating at the restaurant of a Top Chef Master and would be exposed to cuisine that includes turtle and alligator.
I’ll admit I was stumped, and therefore incredibly surprised to learn that Amanda has booked us a trip to the Big Easy. That’s right, we’re heading to New Orleans, to the French Quarter, to Creole & Cajun cuisines, to the home of Mardi Gras and the Sazerac cocktail. Amanda showed me the hotel we’re staying at, all the incredible bars and restaurants we’re going to and the myriad other activities that she’s been researching in recent months. I tell you I simply cannot wait. I love going new places with Amanda, but I am really looking forward to this one: a long weekend away in New Orleans in just a few short weeks. Best! Present! Ever!
