I mean, i cant believe we ever subsisted on just plain king cakes for so long, what with the advent of cream cheese and various filled king cakes over the last 20 yrs or so.. i turn my prominent proboscis up at plain king cake these days .

We have our own criminals to deal with than to worry about those coming in to do their own...
'Mardi Gras Bandits' 122 more phones stolen at parades recovered in Tangipahoa Parish
Seven more arrests have been made in connection with a string of cellphone thefts that have taken place during Mardi Gras.www.wwltv.com
Ha, i got a call last night from an NOPD cop on the corner of Royal & Dumaine.. she said she had my dad’s phone, i guess he lost it while out parading w/some friends from out of town.. this was at 6:30pm Central, and the cop’s all “No rush, ill be here til 6am tomorrow morning!”.. lol.. i myself am out of state, but i guess he has me down as an emergency contact; so i had to track them down from afar and let them know where to find the cop.. Guess my father’s lucky he didn’t become a cellphone theft victim .

I guess I'm too bland. My king cake has to be traditional with no filling, although I might partake in one with Bavarian creme.

Mackenzie’s or Tastees will do it for me. Every other king cake out there is more than I need. I’ll still eat them, but they are more than I need.

that’s kinda the point of carnival, no?
I thought that’s what we’re supposed to do

I'm not one that likes filling, fwiw.

Perhaps for some, but I can get by with a simple king cake is all I am saying.

My wife is currently sorting through all of the beads and crap from this year. I don't know where all of this sheet came from. We only paraded 4 days.

It's ridiculous really. My Houma family complains that they don't catch enough in NOLA. It's like...how much more sheet do you want to throw away anyway?
Online
Yup
We are some middleman for throws moving from Napoleon to the Arc on Loyola and Nashville

That looks perfect and the Mardi Gras colors reflecting on the fork are a nice touch.
