February 5, 2017. Super Bowl at Betty's!

CAMPGROUND:  2nd night at Betty's RV

LOCATION:  Abbeville LA

WEATHER:  Warm and sunny,  Highs in 70s  

Improvising on a shrimp and grits recipe, we had leftover crawfish tails and grits with eggs for breakfast.  How Cajun!

 

We drove to a nearby town to watch the shrimp boats at the dock.  We had bought large shrimp yesterday for $4.99pound, thinking that we got a good deal, but they were $3.50 here.  Wow!  

George is happy with the cheap gas prices, as little as $1.87/gallon  here in Texas and Louisiana.

 

Lunch was shrimp cocktail at the RV park, followed by a trip to the laundry.

.

Then, about 4:30, the RV park group gathered at Betty's patio for a Super Bowl party. 
 I made Texas caviar which turned out really well.  Betty had cooked up a storm for us.  Her cousin caught a catfish yesterday, so she fried up some catfish nuggets.  I normally don't like catfish that much but being so fresh, they were really good.     Betty has scattered Mardi Gras beads all around her knick-knacks in the the patio area.
For the Super Bowl feast, in addition to the catfish nuggets,  Betty also prepared jambalaya, spaghetti, sliders, andouille-stuffed chicken breasts, chicken wings, and deviled eggs.  The RVers brought chips and dip, etc.  What a feast!  
Somone organized a betting game,  and George won $25!
