Jyl and I are hitching a ride with LSPMBer Ashley Roth to Biloxi, Mississippi tomorrow; I'm going to judge the Mississippi Seafood Cookoff. The winner will advance to the Great American Seafood Cookoff to compete for the title of King or Queen of American Seafood.

Stay tuned for pics and commentary tomorrow night. We've done road trips together before, and interesting things always happen.
