    Wanted to share with you that I made gumbo for the first time tonight (and to think I was born in Biloxi - I should be ashamed that it took me 42 years to make my first gumbo - but it was suggested to me by another foodie here as an answer to what to do with left over chicken!- and followed your recipe you shared here - it was wonderful - with a few little changes (different sausages (sliced and browned sweet italian and suprasatta sausage and minus the okra, extra large shrimp, extra garlic, etc.) Incredible - thanks - you have done it again! - I am going to call mine the New Yorker Gumbo! rofl
