March 2010 Brian volunteers at Mitt Romney's No Apology Book Tour


Since I do not put up my blogs in a timely manner I should have always put the date in the title. Sorry.

So, Brian had wanted to go to get Mitt Romney to sign his book but we had so much going on that day that we just decided it couldn't be fit in. Then we received a call from a friend, Rob Thiriot, who was asked by another friend, Reggie Woods, to volunteer or find a volunteer to help work the No Apology book tour in Costa Mesa. So Brian was called and was able to go be part of the event and again meet Mitt Romney !

Mardi Gras House Party from houseparty.com and Zatarains






















Laura and Leo held a Mardi Gras Party for their friends and family. Zatarains offered products for us to try and then we went all out trying some new Cajun/Creole recipes ourselves. We had mask making, Mardi Gras trivia, homemade root beer. It was really good. I even used one of the Zatarains recipes for my Gourmet Club dinner which is really saying alot for Zatarains !
I think that I liked the Zatarains Red Beans and Rice the most out of the mixes. Making Homemade Root Beer was something fun and new. I used the Cajun seasoning in a shrimp dip recipe, in Zatarains BBQ Shrimp recipe and lots more. Enjoy the photos ! for my Gourmet Club photos and recipes go to our blog - bonvivant-oc.blogspot.com.
