Yesterday was Fat Tuesday and having a roommate from the South I could not have forgotten about it if I’d wanted to. He cooked up a king cake and I was the one to get the slice with a little red action figure in the middle. I want to know how many people each year in New Orleans choke on the king cake trinket. Like Russian roulette I started scarffing down the tasty cake last night and could have easily swallowed the plastic figurine if it’s legs weren’t sticking out of the slice’s side. Today he started hanging some party decorations. He had a couple masks from experiences on actual Bourbon Street, Saints memorabilia and then standard party decorations we had purchased online.
I’m not sure when this down south celebration ends but he is planning to have some friends over tonight. He told me to have beads ready so that is a good sign. Mardi Gras on the west coast isn’t as insane as the real deal but with spirit and party decorations it is still fun.
