King Cakes


Oh, my goodness! Has anyone had a king cake before? They are a traditional Mardi Gras cake that has a little "King" burried in the middle somewhere. We had one today at work and it was delicious. Ours had a cream cheese filling , but I guess they can be filled with whatever and looked more filled that this picture.I am trying to learn about Mardi Gras history because I know that it has alot more to it than showing tatas and getting beads. I will keep you updated on that stuff. Eventhough we aren't in New Orleans, Mardi Gras is still a big deal here they have like 5 big parades that apparently people camp out for, grill and have a good time at these events. I want to go to one next weekend and will let you know how that goes.. They also have a parade for pets next Sunday, so if I get ambitious, I might take Jo and Goonz (Foxy and Maddie) I call them by their nicknames more than their real names! haha

Trying this out

I see other people's blogs and love reading them. So, I am trying this out on my own. What the heck, I might have more to say than I think!
