I was in awe. I could have spent DAYS here.

Beignets are good, but the wait and the fuss is just too much work for too little payoff.

It’s greasy gross wonderful food.

One tip…. drink your Frosty O, THEN eat onion rings, otherwise the grease freezes to your tongue. YUCK.

Oh, my goodness. This was by far the most amazing restoration/update of a Cathedral. Not only did it mix the old and new masterfully, but they were very careful to not discount the connection between Saint Brigidt and the Celtic Goddess Brigidt. They focused heavily on the things they were both known for: a fondness of children and animals, a gift of healing, and the strange juxtaposition between fire and water. The shrine (by a sacred well) is a short walk or drive, and shouldn’t be missed.
