I have an issue. I hear about a festival and think that I want to go and do it, but when it comes…read moreto actually going and doing it? I can't make myself do it. Well in this year 2022, I am forcing myself to go. While I missed out on the parade this year and the movie screening, I did come on the Saturday morning of the festival and I am so very glad I did. Parking was no issue; free parking was close to the festivities. There were many booths with a lot of interesting goodies for sale. Amazing festival! I am so glad I came. I look forward to coming again.

I'm probably the only person in Louisiana who doesn't get excited about festivals. To be clear, I…read morenot only don't get excited, I actively avoid them all and have been known to grumble, "is there *really* a need for a mac & cheese festival?" But Rougarou Fest is something else! I've been wanting to go to for years now. I mean, a festival devoted to all things werewolf, witch and Halloween? So up my alley. And it lived up to all of my expectations. What I loved about it: +easy to park and walk to the heart of the action +not so crowded/you won't feel your phobia kicking in +lots of fun crafts on display +excellent music (I mean, how can you not get happy when you hear zydeco?) although the sound person should have noticed that no one was standing in the immediate area by the stage/speakers because it was too loud for the smaller daytime crowds +all of the people and dogs in creative/fun costumes +witches on parade! +lovely Queen! +Re's face painting station +the friendly people of Houma +tent with RF souvenirs, especially this year's awesome poster that compelled me to buy 2 I wish I could write more about the parade but right as Queen Angelique's float rolled by, the heavens opened up and there was a torrential downpour. notes for next year: +it's practically a crime to not come in costume +no food for vegans or vegetarians, so bring snacks +arrive a little later and explore Chavin Sculpture Garden before parking +not a huge festival and an hour or two before the parade is plenty of time to enjoy everything

What a wonderful lil playhouse in a small town. Growing up here, there wasn't anything like this…read more It seats about 100 people. They serve wine, beer and water. Not a bad seat in the house. If you or someone you know is from South Louisiana, you or that someone will appreciate the plays here. All are usually about Cajun culture. You'll just "get it". I have a special appreciation for this place because my daughter has been in two productions. The one currently running, Torn Page is a must see. So funny, so touching and rather suspenseful. Check out their website for season tickets and upcoming shows.

My oldest daughter, who was 12 at the time, wanted to go to New York a year ago and one of her requests was a Broadway Play. I said ok sounds like a plan....before I looked up the prices. We decided upon Wicked at the Gershwin Theatre, again before I looked at the prices. When I saw it was 200.00 each, I screamed, cursed, yelled and I think cried but a promise is a promise. Low and behold this beer guzzling, sports loving, crotch scratching, manly man LOVED IT!! Worth every penny. Fast forward about a year or so and my girlfriend asked if I wanted to go to a play featuring her daughter as one of the stars. Of course, I was willing to go to support her but I had no idea I would enjoy it as much as I did again! Holy Crap if this continues, I'll be singing showtunes and talking about fashion!! Ok may be not that exteme. Ok let's get back on track. This is a small community theatre down in "Da Bayou" that caters to the people of the area. The play we saw was written by a local man that works at Nicholls State and performed by professional local actors. Yes they get paid to perform so it's top notch stuff. There are about 80-100 seats in the place all of which came from the old Saenger Theatre. Tickets are relatively inexpensive for what you get in terms of entertainment. Plus they have beer and wine to enhance your enjoyment. I look forward to the girlfriend "dragging" me back here again.

Had the pleasure of going to Norm's for the first time last night. We stopped there before the…read morefight to grab a drink while we were waiting on friends. It was only like 6:00 pm so not packed at all. The bartenders were so nice and welcoming. We stuck out like sore thumbs and they could tell it was our first time there lol. They immediately offered menus, suggestions, etc. I didn't have long so I opted for a small liquid marijuana daiquiri. IT WAS SO FREAKING GOOD!! It has the perfect amount of bite. So after the fight we just had to come back. That was when the party was starting lol. It was packed. Karaoke going! We had SO much fun and again, the bartenders were impeccable! They kept up with the ever growing crowd with ease! Look this is your typical, small, hometown bar. Lots of locals. But again, even though we clearly were not locals (didn't have my Nicholls red on lol), we were made to feel very welcomed. Both visits. We do plan on coming back next time we're out there and will definitely get out there early enough to try the food! Just want to reiterate one more time, the bartenders were amazing. I wish I could have gotten their names but it was a girl and a guy behind the bar the first time and then later that night it was 2 girls and 1 guy. It was the night/morning of October 7 so if they happen to see this thank you!!!

It's located in a small, rundown looking building off Highway 1; if it wasn't for GPS, you'd easily miss it. The interior is beautiful though. Smells amazing (not sure if that was the candles for sale or the food). Very classy feel to it as soon as you walk in though. I decided to order the almond encrusted duck (appetizer) to go per a yelpers mouth-watering pic of it, and I'm so glad I did! It was scrumptious! The wait once I ordered was almost 30 minutes, so I definitely advise to call and order ahead. 10 people seating and 1 to go order that came before me. I was surprised to see a customer bring his pup in, but I guess I should have known based on all the pup pics on the walls here! Just wish it was closer to BR as I don't come this way very often!
