Since the Zombie Frappuccino will be available on Halloween, this might be the perfect drink to serve at your forthcoming Halloween party. It does take the fuss out the evening: Drop by Starbucks and order a couple trays of these, and stop worrying about concocting the perfect ghoulish punch.
Gallery: Jackson Barracks Historic Garrison. Overlooking the river where New Orleans borders St. Bernard Parish, the garrison is the cradle of todayâs Jackson Barracks, the 117-acre installation that has been completely rebuilt since the storm and is home to the National Guardâs state headquarters and other units and operations.
Almost six years after the levees failed following Hurricane Katrina, swamping Jackson Barracks with as much as 18 feet of water, the National Guard expects this week to reoccupy all of the Antebellum structures that comprise the historic garrison, the Army post built in 1834 to defend New Orleans and the lower Mississippi River.
