    You "Might" Be A Louisiana "Cajun" If :

    You start an angel food cake with a roux.


    Watching "Wild Kingdom" inspires you to write a cookbook.


    You think the former head of the United Nations is Boudreaux-Boudreaux Guillory.


    You think a lobster is a crawfish on steroids.


    You think boudin, hogshead cheese, and a Bud is a bland diet.


    You think Ground Hog Day and the Boucherie Festival are the same holiday.


    You take a bite of five-alarm chili and reach for the Tabasco.


    Fred's Lounge in Mamou means more to you than the Grand Ole Opry.


    You have an *envie* for something instead of a craving.


    You use a "#3" washtub to cover your lawn mower or your outboard motor.


    You use two or more pirogues to cover your tomatoes to protect them from the late frost.


    You use a gill net to play tennis, badminton, or volleyball.


    The horsepower of your outboard motor is greater than that of your
    car motor.


    You pass up a trip abroad to go to the Crawfish Festival in Breaux Bridge.


    Your favorite TV talk show host is "Okra Winfrey."


    Your school teaches the four basic food groups as:
    1) Boiled seafood
    2) Broiled seafood
    3) Fried seafood
    4) Beer



    You are asked to name the holy trinity and your reply is "onions,
    celery, bell pepper."


    You are asked to name the "Fab Four" and you respond, "Paul Prudhomme, John Folse, Justin Wilson, and Vernon Rogers."


    You let your black coffee cool, and find that it has gelled.


    You describe a link of boudin and cracklins as "breakfast."


    Every once in a while, you have waterfront property.


    Your mama announces each morning, "Well, I've got the rice cooking
    ... what will we have for dinner?"


    None of your potential vacation destinations are north of the Old Mississippi River Bridge (US 190).


    You refer to Louisiana winters as "Gumbo Weather."


    You get a disappointing look from your wife and describe it as, "She passed me a pair of eyes."


    You think of gravy as a beverage.


    You greet your long lost friend at the Lafayette Regional Airport with "AAAAAAAYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE."



    You sit down to eat boiled crawfish and your host says, "Don't eat
    the dead ones," and you know what he means.


    You learned Bourre the hard way: Holding yourself upright in your crib.


    You don't know the real names of your friends, only their nicknames.


    You give up Tabasco for Lent


    Your burial plot is six feet *over* rather than six feet *under*.


    You worry about a deceased family member returning in spring floods.


    You're not afraid when someone wants to ax you something.


    You don't learn until high school that Mardi Gras is not a national holiday.


    You push little old ladies out of the way to catch Mardi Gras throws.


    You leave a parade with footprints on your hands.


    You believe that purple, green, and gold look good together -- you will even eat things those colors.


    Your last name isn't pronounced the way it's spelled.


    You know what a nutria is but you still pick it to represent your baseball team.


    You like your rice and your politics *dirty*.

    You Might Be A Leprechaun if...

    You snicker uncontrollably all the way through "Darby O'Gill and the Little People."

    Your record collection is stocked only with very short artists:
    Paula Abdul, Sheena Easton, Prince, Phil Collins.

    When you see a rainbow, you get a greedy little look in your eye. (Arrrr, there's me pot o' gold!)

    In your cupboard there is nothing but Lucky Charms cereal.

    Every time you get your paycheck, you convert it into gold coins and bury it somewhere.

    You insist on dancing a jig on your way to work each morning to the embarrassment of all your friends.

    You've been under a rock for the past few years.

    You just despise fairies. ("Wing Envy" if you ask me!)

    You try to pick up women by saying "Ah, lassie, you have dazzling kneecaps, you do."

    When you eat good food, you say it is "magically delicious,".

    And the number one way you can tell you might be a Leprechaun:

    You're three feet tall, Irish, have red hair, cuss, drink and wear green a lot!
