Bubble bubble
Aug. 27th, 2007 09:53 pmHollie never wanted to come with me on any post-Katrina photographing expedition downriver from the Industrial Canal. Today she was lured below the Canal for the first time since the storm-- by yummy bubble tea.
Sunday she planned a meeting at the bubble tea place in my neighborhood, only to find it closed down. (She moved the meeting to PJ's Coffee.) Jay's Bubble Tea was Rosie Lea's pre-K. Excellent bubble teas; I think they were the first to create a New Orleans hybrid type using a sno-wizard machine in making them. We were glad when they reopened under new ownership as Jay's. However it seems to have been going down hill since the new owner turned things over to his son, with service and quality slipping. Now its gone.
Well, Hollie had an unfullfilled bubble tea jones, so after my radio show she consented to my suggestion of a drive to a good bubble tea place in St. Bernard. "Bubble T" is on Judge Perez just below the Murphy Refinery. Fresh fruit in excellent bubble tea. H had piña colada and I had a papaya.

In other news, Preznit Bush is marking the second anniversary of Katrina not by going back on an extended vacation, but rather by coming here. It's been announced that per White House request, the streetcar lines will be shut down during his visit. WTF? Is Shrubya afeard of trolleys?
