Joyeux Mardi Gras, Tout Le Monde!

I've got a Mardi Gras rush shirt I'll be sporting today...with real clothes underneath because I have a bid opening to go to.

I searched two grocery stores last night for a crown cake to bring in to work, but couldn't find one anywhere.

Happy Fat Tuesday everyone!

I hate Kansas. People don't understand Mardi Gras, Fat Tuesday, nothing. outs*

I miss Mississippi.

Your right- King cake (don't know why I said crown). The groceries in Evansville used to have them right up until Fat Tuesday, but here in Indy they don't seem to have them at all.

I knew there was a reason that I really felt like a beignet this morning!

The bakery near my house was already sold out when I went by first thing this morning. Better planning required next year.

Meanwhile, I'm just drinking as much Coca-Cola and eating as much ice cream and cheese as I can today -- my system is in for such a shock tomorrow!

But for today, laissez les bon temps rouler!

This thread brings back so many memories of APO's national convention in Nawlins back in '02. You could've sworn it was Mardi Gras then!
