Now when I saved it for publishing today, I sure didn’t know what post would precede this one on folo. But gee, as long as we’re in the neighborhood . . .

Boudreaux been fish’n down by de bayou all day an he done run outta dem night crawlers. He be bout reddy to leave when he see a snake wit a big frog in his mouf. He know dem big bass fish like frogs, so he decide to steal dat froggie.

Dat snake, he be a cottonmouf water moccasin, so Boudreaux hafta be real careful or he get bit. He sneak up behine dat snake and grab him roun de haid. Dat ole snake don’t lak dat one bit. He squirm and wrap hisself roun Boudreaux’s arm try’n to get hissef free. But Boudreaux, he gotta real good grip on his haid, yeh.

Well, Boudreaux pry dat snake’s mouf open and get de frog and put it in he bait can. Now, Boudreaux know he cain’t let go dat snake or he’s gonna bite him good, but he got him a plan. He reach into de back pocket of he bib overalls and pull out a pint a moonshine likker. He pour some drops into de snake’s mouf. Well, dat snake’s eyeballs roll back in he haid and he body go limp. Wit dat, Boudreaux toss dat snake into de bayou, den he go back to fish’n.

While later Boudreaux feel sumpin tapp’n on he barefoot toe. He look down and dere be dat cottonmouf water moccasin, wid two more frogs.

So lissen here, cha: ol’ Boudreaux an folo’s pet cottonmouf Misss Sssally an NMC an I, we all wish’n you a three-frog Valentine’s Day (especially you, Kingfish)!

    Just noticed the Cajun-goodies ads down at bottom-right, and though Google apparently doesn’t want blog-owners to click on their own ads (or instruct readers to), I couldn’t resist one of ‘em. Think I prolly CAN resist the “Zapp’s Creole Tomato Tabasco Potato Chips” on offer there, howsomevah.

    I think my Valentine’s Day night may qualify for an official “Blues Valentines Day”. The wife is teaching a night class tonight. I’m home alone — well, not quite, the dog is with me. We (me and the dog) just finished grilling some country style BBQ ribs ( el cheapo), while listening to Bluesville on XM radio and standing next to an outdoor fire in a fire pit (we MS country folks like to burn shit –especially in the evening, when there is a chill in the air). The ribs never made it off the grill — me and the dog ate them right off the grill — I would take a bite, then toss him a bite. Smoked me a GOB cigar out there as well — Eastland/MS Redneck Sopranos style. And a few Dixie Blackened Voodoo Lager beers to wash it all down– good stuff. The little misses is still not home, and the evening is still young. Not sure what the dog and me are going to do next (we’ve run out of BBQ), but we are enjoying the fire and the blues. There are some coyotes howling in the distance. Maybe a late evening coyote hunt? With every beer, its sounding more possible.

    Hope everyone is having a good Valentines Day evening.
