Friends, it has been much too long. It has been so long, in fact, that some doubted whether chicken and rice would ever return. I will save the tale of where I have been for another day. Suffice it to say, however, that sometimes you have to let the jambalaya stand for five minutes before serving. In any event, without further ado, I bring to you something delicious to sate the hunger.

Life is like a chaos potluck. It is the chaos that makes life enjoyable. It keeps you guessing, never quite knowing what will emerge from the kitchen called humanity, much of which is yet to be experienced or discovered.  But no matter what, as long as you invite enough people to your chaos potluck, odds are you will get something that you will enjoy.  Sometimes you get all food, and sometimes, you get all beer. However, every once in awhile, you get food and beer, and then everyone has a good time. Well…everyone but the vegans with Celiac Disease, but they don’t really matter anyway. So friends, a final thought of a simple post — relish the chaos, and don’t make friends with vegans. The result will be delicious with probability approaching one.
