This is normally the time of year for crawfish boils, but with boiled crawfish selling for more than $7/lb, Fillmoreans are having to look at alternatives.And yes, we have heard the whisperings of a community potato boil. But really—it’s difficult to get excited about a community potato boil. A potato boil is not A Boil, it is a group coping mechanism. It’s less “festival” and more “we have gathered together to accept what’s been taken from us.” Regardless of whatever the Irish have to say… Economic Outlook: Bleak for crawfish. Strong for potatoes. Unclear for morale. Also: tornado season is warming up, which means the weather will be 83 degrees on Tuesday and 42 on Thursday. Dress in layers like an onion with secrets.
