Argh.

I guess I'm NOT making Chicken Gumbo tonight. I don't have any V-8 juice, and I'd forgotten about that. (And we are NOT going back out today to get some.)

Curses!

That's the only thing I really wanted tonight. It would have made my snuffly nose and sore, sore throat feel so much better. :-(

nothing you can use to substitute?

It's the base for my gumbo, I'm afraid. You can alter the things which you choose to put in it (chicken, tomatoes, onions, peppers, etc.), but I don't think you can alter the base. :-(

I hate when that happens :o/

Once we're home for the day, we're not going back out:)

Of course, I am sure for you today, the weather is a big factor.

Sorry you feel sick.

Maybe while I'm out tomorrow (at the doctor's), I'll pick up some V8. It still sounds so yummyful right about now!

Thanks for your concern. It's kinda weird having two Maria "mommies" on my list now. ;-)

It's probably a little late to help out now, but I have an awesome crock-pot "chicken and rice gumbo soup" recipe that I'll be glad to share if you want it. It doesn't call for v-8... it's really supposed to be more of a soup served over rice than traditional gumbo, but I usually throw the rice into the cooker for the last 3-4 hours or so and it comes out all gooey and gummy and... well, yummy. If you're interested in the recipe, you're welcome to it, just let me know.

Maybe some chicken broth will help? It always helps me! Feel better.
