Music Monday: “I Will Play For Gumbo” by Jimmy Buffett (live)

Posted By on September 9, 2024

Back during COVID, Americans were not able to eat out the way we once did. Our habits in the Corbett household changed a bit, although we actually started cooking a bit more after our favorite restaurant closed (we were no longer just tossing food in the microwave or on the grill).

One of the things we looked forward to on the weekend was “dinner and a classic movie” … and it improved once we Jimmy Buffett Live at Wrigley Field - Sept 1 2017started the HelloFresh meal subscription. Clam Shack GumboAt first, it was just to try it (it is pricey) … but we enjoyed it so much that we continue far longer than we expected. I’d like to say that we tried to buy and make the recipes on our own, but we have not. ☹️ 

One of the add-on items that started to be a regular for me was a small bucket of Blount Clam Shack Gumbo. Eventually I asked if it was or could be sold at our grocery store locally, but never could get it carried locally. Since we’ve given up on subscription meals, Hello Fresh wasn’t an option anymore. Blount doesn’t sell direct to consumers, but I did find a way to order from distributors — now our freezer is stocked.

Fast forward to having some “Gumbo” on Music Monday and a Jimmy Buffett song from his 1999 album, “Beach House on the Moon” … here’s a 2017 LIVE version when he performed at Wrigley Field. We should invite Megan and Taylor up for some gumbo … and listen to the album (CD). 😉
