Mardi Gras Fairy

Today is Fat Tuesday. Really makes me want to go back to New Orleans. I haven't been since before Hurricane Katrina and I loved it. Definitely one of my favorite vacations. That being said, I haven't been back because I have children now and I just don't think that New Orleans is a great place to vacation with small children (older children, maybe). Anyway, I put a status on my FB page saying, "Happy Mardi Gras! I really want a King Cake!" I thought about that King Cake all the way to work.

Apparently, one of my co-workers was checking FB on her phone, because when I arrived, there, on the counter was a KING CAKE!!!

It was super fresh, in fact, just out of the oven at Publix! Now, this isn't a real King Cake, but in Georgia we take what we can get on Fat Tuesday!

It's a good thing I ran a mile on the treadmill today, because I think I ate those calories back with that cake! Now, I just have to decide what to give up for Lent before tomorrow!
