Everyone was more than happy to sample the candy despite the beignets, grits, eggs, and sausage they’d already had that day. After all, investigating was hard work!

They all chose something different in order to share bites. Teddy went for the classic praline, while Nanette said there was nothing better than the Creole version with its extra sugar and butter. Alfie chose a Mississippi Mud, which was a large square of dark chocolate with caramel, pecans, and more chocolate. Emilia grabbed a milk-chocolate turtle. Clarice gave her two, “because they’re so small,” she said.

Everyone thanked Clarice for her help.

“You come back anytime!” she said. “And when you find Delphine, be sure to tell her she better come see me.”

The gang walked back out into the strong afternoon sun. The day definitely was getting hotter, but Alfie was eager to keep going. “Let’s go find this Lind house!” he said.

“I think we better go home and check in first,” Nanette said. “It’s getting late, and we have to play tonight, after all.”

“Yeah, let’s go home and look up the Lind house online. Then we can go grab po’boys for dinner before we head to the club,” Teddy said.

“Who are they?” Emilia asked.

“Who?” Teddy said. “You mean what.”

“You mean to tell us you haven’t had a po’boy, either?” Nanette said, her hand on her hip.

Alfie and Emilia looked guiltily at Teddy and Nanette. “Guess not,” said Alfie.

“You better call that aunt of yours,” Nanette said. “Because you’re eating dinner with us tonight.”

“Yeah!” Teddy added. “Might as well see if you can stay another night. That way we can go find the Lind house first thing in the morning.”

“Sounds good to me,” said Alfie. More food and more adventure was just what he was hoping for.
