I'm older than your beard, btw.

The evening before surgery I went to the best little hole-in-the-wall seafood place in Shreveport. We asked around and everyone said if I really wanted good seafood to go there. The kind of Mom & Pop place that only locals know about - it was awesome! I had a great "last" meal.

Now I can only watch my husband enjoy it. Way too spicy for me.
