Gia Scott is the New Orleans Food Examiner, as well as the host of Gia Scott’s Dawn of Shades. She wears a lot of hats in the course of a day, which is probably a good thing, since she has hair that has devoted itself to the search for intelligent life–away from her head! Gia is also one of the founders of Exogeny Network, Get Ready GO, and Gia Pets. She also volunteers in favorite causes, and has helped Metairie Humane, a 100% no-kill pet rescue, since they were founded. She writes on a number of topics, as well as writing poetry on occasion, but she is not allowed to sing in public. Sometimes, early on Sunday morning, you can find her in the French Quarter, dragging along an unwilling victim named Gregory. If you see him, he will do almost anything for a Klondike bar. If you are out of those, he can often be coaxed with a cup of coffee.

- Do It Yourself –dehydrated backpacker’s meals April 1, 2013Face it, whether you are a cyclist, backpacker, or just a compact camper, the commercially prepared freeze dried meals have been along on a trip or two. Equally as often, you have not been too happy with the meal that resulted, as it failed in quantity, flavor, color, or texture. I will never forget an […]giascott
- The ultimate bug out kit November 23, 2012Emergency preparedness experts often talk about their “bug out” kit. Just what exactly IS this bug out kit? It’s a kit designed for quick departure for an unknown period of time and unknown reason. Nobody markets the ultimate bug out kit because there is no uniformity to the real ultimate bug out kit. Sacrilege, you […]giascott
- Get Ready GO September 18, 2012We had a ” MeetUp.com” group that shared its name with this blog. We tried all kinds of activities to get people involved, but despite having over a hundred members, we were often hard pressed to have anyone attend anything besides the organizers. Since the organizers all knew each other, after three years of efforts, […]giascott

- Groceries at the cheapest level June 6, 2010It’s the beginning of the month, and money is tight. Partly from a curiosity, partly from that economic crunch that occurs when bills are due and income isn’t high, we tightened the belt to the tightest notch this week. We just purchased the last of the groceries for the week, which today included milk, hamburger [...]giascott
- New Orleans, Soul food, Southern food June 5, 2010I went to research the soul food of New Orleans and ended up scratching my head. Soul food, as a stand alone category, doesn’t seem to mean much to me. As I went through the lists of “typical” soul food offerings at soul food restaurants across the nation, I was further mystified. It seems that [...]giascott
- Ramon-ov Noodles via The Beanery June 1, 2010Sometimes, we have just a little bit of leftovers. Not enough for the next meal, but too much to throw away. This is a dish that uses that last bit of beef stew, the leftovers from a roast beef dinner, or anything along those lines. By using everything (and not over-eating to keep from "wasting" the leftovers) it's easier to keep meal costs do […]giascott
