I trust you will forgive an ignorant Yankee for not quite understanding the difference between a po'boy and a sub???
Ok, so I see this is from your other story Royal Orleans , yes?
Sherry seems like a good strong female character. I am guessing that Chad is the arch-nemesis turned lover? Or am I all wrong??? This is the first excerpt I have read from this story of yours.
I enjoyed reading this, Page. Keep up the good work!!
A po'boy is a lot like a sub in the way it looks from the outside, but it's ever so much better! *G* First of all, a real po'boy has to be served on Louisiana french bread, which is not regular french bread. It's crustier for one thing, and the inside is divine. Most real po'boys are made with seafood. Doesn't matter if it's shrimp, oysters, crab or crawfish. And it's always served hot. You can also get a roast beef po'boy, smothered in gravy. If you want lettuce, tomato and mayo, you have to ask for it to be "dressed," otherwise that stuff's left off. Non-seafood po'boys have Creole mustard, unless you specify regular yellow American mustard. A real po'boy from the Gulf Coast is beyond divine, and I sure do miss them.
Yep, Royal Orleans is the working title of this one. I'm glad you like Sherry! Chad, though, won't be her lover; he's that guy everyone has to work with at one time or another -- a total jerk, and so full of himself he squeaks. *G* No, Sherry's lover will be Geoff. Eventually!
