Fiesta Friday #420

Who’s ready for Mardi Gras? The husband, that’s who!

He keeps reminding me… Remember, Fat Tuesday is in two weeks! As if I need reminders. And what does he mean, honestly, by giving me these reminders?

I guess he wants food. Lots and lots of it. I’m not opposed to lots of food, generally speaking. It depends on the kinds of food, I suppose.


I wonder what his choice of fat is for Fat Tuesday this time around. A triple bacon burger with fries and onion rings on the side would be my guess. I, on the other hand, more often than not, want beignets. But this year maybe I’ll do King Cake, instead.

It’s such a happy cake, so colorful. It makes me happy just looking and thinking about it.

What about you? Will you be celebrating Mardi Gras aka Fat Tuesday? And how would you mark the occasion? Let us know, please.

      It’s such a brilliant idea, Melynda. I don’t enjoy peeling and chopping garlic!

      Thanks, but it was just ok. It was a little overbaked; I followed a recipe online. I’ll need to tweak it next time. Btw, Jhuls, you may want to look into your spam folder. I’ve left you comments on several posts but they never showed up.
