Heh. Marie Laveau's. I used to work there. Crappy place, really. Erzuli's is better (word to the wise).

*smiles* I was just there, mere weeks ago. And Dragons Blood is one of my two favorite scents in all the world.
(The other being Patchouly.)
Reading this made me smile. Thanks for sharing it.
Love,

You local?

Used to be. I had to move away, just a few weeks before the hurricane hit. I just came down for Halloween this year.
I do hope to move back for good someday though.

Hm Voodoo magic...

Will you ever return to NOLA I wonder?

Been contemplating another trip there myself, I need to give myself some time to save the money though. So perhaps Halloween this year..Maybe I will visit this Voodoo shop..I did walk into one once when I was there last time it was on Royal street I think. Small little shop very peaceful atmosphere.

I have plans to return some time this year, if only briefly. New Orleans is my primary residence, of course and there is always business to attend to there.

As for the shop you visited, Erzulie's is located on the corner of St. Ann and Royal, so perhaps that is the one. I prefer Marie Laveau's myself, but both have a wonderful atmosphere and a wide variety of items for sale and display. I do hope you are able to return to the Big Easy soon, chérie. From what I've read in your journal you seemed to enjoy yourself there last time.
