Don't let the gumbo get cold

Snapshots from a short road trip into the heart of Missouri. Heavy rain, spicy gumbo and great company.

For the curious minds, according to Wikipedia, gumbo is a stew or soup originated in Southern Louisiana. It typically consists of a strongly-flavored stock, meat or shellfish, a thickener and seasoning vegetables, which can include celery, bell peppers and onions. The ideal comfort food for cold days.
