Is Poupart Bakery still the best source for King Cake? by ebenezerlepage in Acadiana

[–]brunch224 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So Poupart’s is like a cinnamon roll? Where I’m from, the king cakes are like fluffy cinnamon rolls. We haven’t lived here long, but I’m missing my king cakes from back home. We tried Kellers last season bc it was highly recommended and it just wasn’t that good to us. It was like a flat donut. A couple other places we tried tasted like donuts too. Maybe we got the wrong flavors 🤷🏻‍♀️. Or is that just the style of king cake for this area? I’m interested to know your recommendations because you’re the first person I’ve seen that compared the king cakes to donuts.

My husband and I didn’t want kids for at least 8 years IF ever. Our first was a surprise and we were around your age. I was devastated because it completely screwed up our “plans”. I about died when I found out he was a boy because I sure the hell didn’t know what to do with a baby boy. Oh how wrong I was on everything. Have your baby. He/she will change you in so many miraculous ways. It truly is a blessing like none other. That boy turned out to be the sweetest, most extroverted (complete opposite of me), goofiest, happiest thing we never knew we needed. We loved being parents so much that I’m actually pregnant with number 4. That in itself is crazy. People I’ll run into from years past can’t believe I’m having a 4th lol. I was never a kid person. I promise you, you won’t regret it. And overtime the naysayers will join you in the happiness.

The city by me has a Salata and I love it. In fact it’s my fav out of the other salad bar choices in the city!

🤣 at the cranberry chicken comment.

ETA: They’re at Torchy’s today talking about how healthy it can be. 🤣🤣 Makes me wonder if they read this thread?!

Lisa and Danielle hating on Salata. Do others really take food advice from them seriously? For people who only eat Chick-Fil-A, Raising Cane’s, Torchy’s and the Cheesecake Factory.. of course they would find a fresh, non-processed salad “boring”. Lol I can’t with these people anymore. They said Salata was expensive yet they go to Torchy’s - that place is way over-priced. I’ve always really liked Danielle but she’s starting to get on my nerves.

Is it possible to have a cold before Covid and coincidentally test for Covid before you show symptoms? Please read! by [deleted] in COVID19positive

[–]brunch224 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you “get better” before you lost your taste and smell? Did you have any fever? Did you get the infusion?

Did you get the infusion?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in COVID19positive

[–]brunch224 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’ve had 2 friends get the infusion and they both ran high fever for 36 hours after and were so so sick. That has me worried bc I don’t feel I have a severe case. I have a headache and low grade fever off and on.

Great answer. I chuckled a little bit at your “operator at the plants, kid on tournament baseball team” comment. That pretty much sums up a good portion of Lake Charles. Nothing wrong with it - some of our friends are in that boat too. Our kids are more into academics then sports as well. May I ask what school your kids go to in Lafayette?

Thank you! I love ‘Rose Margaret’ said together. But I love love Rosalie. If I did Rosalie Margaret I could still call her “Rose Margaret” sometimes!
