Tara, my wife and I love your videos, especially watching you cook the 'fresh catch'. We would like to try some of your recipes but since "everyone's cooking is different", you don't give specifics (how much water to the rue...etc.) . Could you do videos on your crawfish stew with some specifics to give us a starting point? Also, if Keith could give us a step-by-step on boiling shrimp or crabs with potatoes, corn, onions, etc. Maybe we need a DLLife cookbook! Thanks for all you do! LAIGHTUUHH!

We had a houseboat on Bayou Corn and we would motor out to Lake Verret and tie up to the same big Cypress tree and fish for Sac-A-Lait during the day and catch frogs at night.

We put the cooked white rice in a bowl and put the gumbo on top. The gumbo tastes even better after it sits in the refrigerator. I'll mention to her about the vinegar.
