Down on the Bayou Teche in Louisiana, grand-nephew Valentin Michel visits Maw Maw and Paw Paw in time for dinner. Maw Maw how has new glasses and doesn't see well, is cooking gumbo. Due to poor vision, she confuses Valentin Michel with his cousin, Evangeline Marie. She served him a bowl of gumbo without realizing in it is a live crab. Paw Paw has nodded off and so, when he tells Maw Maw he can't eat his his gumbo because in is is a crab trying to eat him, Maw Maw responds, "EAT YOUR GUMBO!"
The story contains idioms, phrasing, and sentence structure unique to my Cajun relatives of southern Louisiana not to mention the art of cooking gumbo.
