To Eat while Traveling: New Orleans Golden Birthday, Part 3

Saturday! Our final day. On that day, all moments were leading up to creux de vieux (a politically charge and satirical parade that many people claim is their favorite night of mardi gras--lucky us!). We started with a hearty breakfast at Elizabeth's. I had poached eggs on artichoke hearts with grits. And, I ordered a side of praline bacon. OMGOMOGMOG. It was sweet and salty and the best.

We awoke the following day to celebrate my golden birthday. #golden30. I took the opportunity to wear all the patterns I owned in my suitcase because, if I were not confined by society's expectations (or the desire to be respected by colleagues), I would probably wear all the patterns all the time. Perhaps, even every garment polka dotted.  

i love this coat. and so many different types of people compliment me on it. i like that about it, too.

During the last week of January we headed down to New Orleans to celebrate my birthday, the golden one! (I turned the same age as the date, specifically, 30 on the 30th.)

This is the first installment of 3. We were there for 3 full days. So, like, a post for each day.
