Yat Wit: Chicken Gumbo for the New Orleans Soul

Yat Wit: Chicken Gumbo for the New Orleans Soul
- Used Book in Good Condition
From the dilemma of deciding who gets the third and final beignet to the art of poaching ladders at Mardi Gras parades, the laugh-out-loud essays in Yat Wit: Chicken Gumbo for the New Orleans Soul celebrate the quirks and perks of life in the Big Easy.
Among the essays is one that laments the way Word documents attempt to correct common New Orleans terms and another that offers out-of-this-world advice for parade-goers burdened with excess catches. Ms. Emilie Peaust is on hand to assist readers with the appropriate etiquette for dodging unyielding streetcars, eating sloppy roast beef po-boys, and securing a toilet on Mardi Gras Day.
Derived from the common greeting "Where y'at?", a yat is a New Orleanian who speaks with a distinct phraseology. This candid book honors the yat in all of us with essays that detail both the eccentric experience and the everyday joy of life in this fun-loving city.
Whether you are a long-time local, a one-time visitor, or a far-away fan of America's Favorite City, get ready to smile, giggle, and chortle at the distinct humor that abounds in Yat Wit: Chicken Gumbo for the New Orleans Soul.
