“Why All The Big Girls Should Move To New Orleans”
An email from the awesome Jezebella (with the subject line above):
I just had to share this Kermit Ruffins video with y’all. When was the last time you saw a pure-D big girl dancing in the background of a music video? I love her joyous dancing – it’s not pornified or anything, just happy fun dancing. I always tell plus-size women up north who are looking for a fat-friendly dating world, they should move down South because Southern men are not all about stick figures.
Anyhoo, I don’t know who this dancer is, but watching her shimmyshake just makes me happy:
I realize it’s approximately, oh, six months too early for this. But it’s half-Christmas! Today! Right now! And the gulf states could use a little love.

Love it. Gonna play that one a few times today to keep me in a good mood.
What an absolutely adorable video! I loved it!
Hee! What a great thing to see. I needed that. Thanks.
I moved to New Orleans in January, and I have to say that I’ve been on more dates in the last month than I was on in my last two or three years of living in Tampa.
Cannot do Xmas in June. Absolutely not. No matter what.

Okay, off topic – but this harks back to your “bad diet advice” from earlier this week – re the apricot and almond masquerding as a cookie. Check this week’s “Health” section in the New York Times for the recipe for “Roasted Apricots with Almond and bread crumb topping” – it looks wonderful – better than cookies….

Gulf spill be damned… Are my bags packed yet? Almost!
Unless I’m much mistaken, I believe that’s Kermit’s lovely wife, Karen.
