Ok, so I had the idea to make chicken gumbo. However, I know I don't have certain items. At what point does gumbo become soup?
So, in order of importance (I feel):
No okra
No Andouille sausage
No celery for the Trinity
However, I do have File powder, and I can make a damn good roux.
Aaaaaand GO!
Okra is cow food, not people food.
So if I add beef, then I'm adding okra by proxy. Genius!

Without okra, I'm not sure it's gumbo. But it would still be delicious.
WHY THE HELL IS THIS IN LITERATE CHAOTIC?!
Also, it was fucking delicious.
