Restoring my dad’s dutch oven took some *work.* It hasn’t been used since he passed about 15 years ago. I am thrilled with how it turned out! 🥹🥰

I thought that after photo was the extent of it but it's so much worse -
the lincoln bathroom remodeled with very loud floor to ceiling white with gray veining marble and shiny 1990s brass accents. it is extremely tacky and a very chaotic evil type of renovation.

Whew it’s over. “The storm which prompted the warning has weakened below severe
limits, and no longer appears capable of producing a tornado. Therefore, the warning will be allowed to expire.” That was so eerie. Barely raining during warning but lots of thunder. Rain just hit as warning expired.

Had to shoot my shot.
Screenshot of a DM to HEB on Instagram. It says: Hi, l've never sent a message to a stranger on a social media app, let alone a grocery store biz. And then also offering unsolicited advice to said grocery store. 😂 But! Winn Dixie is pulling out of Louisiana, and y'all could really move in and make such a huge impact on the communities here. I lived in Texas for 20 years, and while I'm so happy to be back home in New Orleans, I miss y'all terribly! No one compares to HEB. Y'all are the best!

I was shopping around last night. 😂 I’m torn between the panda and the dachshund, but the dachshund is just incredible.

Golden Hour in #NewOrleans ✨✨✨

It’s taken me some time to get back to my solo park walks, but I don’t remember seeing this sign in this exact spot last year. This indicates to me someone recently tried it. 🥴🫠😅
A photo taken in City Park with a lush tree line and a murky swamp in the background. In the foreground there is a green sign with all caps white font on a green metal pole that says “caution (alligator symbol) alligators present please do not feed wildlife.” there is line of lush knee high foliage bordering the swamp right behind the sign.

Sought some peace among the trees today. ✨ #NewOrleans
A massive oak tree in city park with multiple huge branches growing to the right, like the tree is stretching. A fountain, benches, and greenery are in the background framed by some of the giant branches.

A lull. 🫠 This afternoon looks like it will be the same intensity as this morning but for a longer duration.
Radar for the New Orleans area, showing multiple storm cells and impending severe weather later in the afternoon.
