Kate, if your question is about one of the New Orleans posts, a muffy is almost certainly a muffaletta, which is a kick-ass sandwich.

'Tis a sandwhich ...
[muhf-fuh-LEHT-tuh] A specialty of New Orleans, this HERO-style sandwich originated in 1906 at the Central Grocery, which many think still makes the best muffuletta in Louisiana. The sandwich consists of a round loaf of crusty Italian bread, split and filled with layers of sliced PROVOLONE, Genoa SALAMI and ham topped with "olive salad," a chopped mixture of green, unstuffed olives, PIMIENTOS, celery, garlic, cocktail onions, CAPERS, oregano, parsley, olive oil, red-wine vinegar, salt and pepper. The olive salad is what sets the muffuletta apart from any other sandwich of its ilk. [GourmetSleuth.com]
It is of the yum.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Cripes. The only muffaletta I've had is the turkey muffaletta from Jason's Deli, but that sounds forty times better (if it comes in turkey).

I didn't have a muffaleta while in NO. How did I miss that? I love capers and olives and vinegar.
ION, if Nilly comes in August, I'm afraid I won't be able to join the party. Le sigh.

Olives are the tool of the devil. That is all.

The words are English, but I can't make them make sense.

Brush the olives off the top of the sandwich. It's still very, very edible.
God, I would sell a limb for a Central Grocery muffaletta right now.
