How have I gone this far in my life and never knew I lived so close to the Giant Omelette Celebration? They say the omelette itself contains over 5,000 eggs! Every year in early November the town of Abbeville mimics France with the Giant Omelette Celebration.

Legend says that after Napoleon first had an omelette in South France he loved it so much he made a giant omelette to feed his army. The town of Abbeville Chamber of Commerce back in the 80's visited France and after attending the festival decided to do the same back in Louisiana.  I am thankful for you!

They say the event is fun for the entire family, but honestly I'd imagine the nap that would follow the event would be even better. Click HERE for more details.
