What is Tasso?

 

I tried a new dish last week.  We spent a couple of days in Lake Charles, Louisiana and went to one of our favorite eating establishments Buffi's Peaux boys.  Ratings and comments on Google suggested the cabbage and tasso soup. 

What is tasso? I, a girl from the South, did not know what tasso was.

Tasso (often called tasso ham) is a heavily spiced, cured, and hot-smoked pork specialty from south Louisiana and Cajun cuisine.

Whatever the case may be, it was delicious!  How often do you try new dishes?

Shall we get to the funnies?

Gone Grammar

I think strict grammar lessons have gone the way of the dinosaur; well, in Texas public schools I KNOW they have, but I believe it's true of colleges as well.  

 I have a few grammar-related pet peeves.  And I think that people in the publishing business or those who work in news outlets really should know these. This week, I've heard several things that were wrong grammatically.  Annoying!  And unacceptable.   Schools don't do diagramming anymore.  I loved it.  It was like a puzzle!  Some college students think speaking the language correctly is unimportant.

Prepositions.  First, objects of prepositions use the objective case which includes me, you, him, her, us, them.  Even my best friend says this wrong. Between you and I, for example, is incorrect,  Or, the Emmy goes to him and I.  Again, incorrect.  It should be him and me.  Take out  the words "him and."  Would  you say the Emmy goes to I?  I think not.

There are other pet peeves, like alot written as one word, and irregardless, which isn't a word at all.

  News people, take note.  You should know this!

apostrophes where they are not necessary

I wonder what nice thing the patients did to get a thanks.

Please don't eat my customers!

Please don't use your tongue!

Ewwwww. Sweat in your tea?

Were you planning to smoke your food, or were you going to smoke your beverages?

Pretty sure I have enough pubic education!  I've been married a long time!

Poor thing.  I wonder  how she can tell her pee is sweet.  Ooooohhhhh.  She meant Pea!

I hope they don't have to demonstrate that they have gas in order to get the free meal!

 

Let's get this child some spelling and grammar lessons stat!

Satin!  Hahahaha!

I wonder if smoking quietly is ok since it's not aloud.

We're about to take off... Wheeeee!

 We just got back from a trip to Colorado.  We live in Texas, so we flew to Denver, rented a car, and drove to Estes Park and Rocky Mountain National Park.  As we were about to take off for the flight home, I thought to myself, wouldn't it be more fun if the pilot said something like "And away we gooooooo," as he's about to put the wheels up.  Or maybe as we take off, he sang, "Up, up and away."  Or maybe as we're climbing in the sky, he could say, "Wheeeeee!"  What do you think?  I think it would be hilarious!  How about some vacation funnies?
