I'm a lousy blogger!

Today is National Gumbo Day, according to my Gallo Family calendar.  I invited my friend Pat to have lunch, gumbo of course, to celebrate.  I used a recipe I found on the Martha Stewart website, Half-Hour Chicken Gumbo.  I also baked cornbread, from scratch, & Bumbleberry Blossoms, frozen from Safeway.  Lunch was actually a snap!

I set the table with my Fall leaf plates, Polka Dot bowls...everything looked and tasted wonderful!

DID I GET JUST ONE PHOTO???  NO!!!  NOPE!!!  NADA!!!

I missed the photo of the table setting.
I missed the photo of Pat arriving.
I missed the photo of the piping hot gumbo.
I missed the photo of the deliciously browned cornbread.
I missed the photo of the Bumbleberry Blossom, served with cream poured over.
Perfect blog content, right?

Why can't I remember my camera!?!? 

What I have to show for the day:

The leftover gumbo,



The leftover cornbread,



The leftover dessert,




What's left of the table setting,



And the dirty dishes!



How do you all remember your camera?  HELP!

    You're just keeping it real, right? I forget my camera all the time. I also forget my cell phone all the time. I'd forget my head if...

    Oh my I have been terrible with pictures as of late. Lots of wonderful photo opportunities and no camera. :) Continue to enjoy a lovely Autumn season dear Chris.
