C’mon, Fall!

I personally need about a 30° drop in the temps before I can cook something like chicken and sausage gumbo and really ENJOY it by eating 5 bowls. Maybe you’re different. If so, check out Miss Janis’ featured recipe. If not, well, check it out to save it. Lyman is going to add his 2¢ so keep checking back, and you’ll have two excellent recipes.
I will note that it’s hard finding good andouille just about anywhere that’s not Louisiana, but I have found some in the markets around town under the Tony Chachare brand. I smoked some, which you’re not really supposed to do with andouille, and it was just fine.

That’s Janis with an ’s’ no ‘e’. Still can’t figure out how my mother came up with that.

That’s quite embarassing, since I read your blog every day. I guess the other way is a common spelling? I don’t even know another Janis (or Janice.)

‘Janis Joplin’

Alright already! I’m an idiot.
In my defense, Janis Joplin was 10 years before my time and already an icon of sorts. But that’s no excuse, because she was a damn Texan, so I should know better.

Joplin is very nice, as is Ian, but the only Janis from my era (1957) that I can think of is Paige. Was I named after Janis Paige?
