--- Quote from: Jeff Wrangler on January 08, 2012, 03:13:10 pm ---At church this morning we celebrated the Feast of the Epiphany, which was actually Friday (January 6).
The custom of the parish is to have a Three Kings cake at coffee hour on the Sunday we celebrate the feast. I decided not to stay for coffee hour today. I told the friend who was sitting with me this morning, "I'm going right home. I can't eat no cake just now."
;D
(If you find in your piece of cake one of the three tokens baked into the cake, you get to wear a crown. I told my friend, "In our parish it ought to be a tiara.")

That's like the king cake custom in New Orleans. Every cake has a little plastic baby baked into it. The person who gets the baby has to buy the next king cake.
Between the holidays and Mardi Gras, there's king cake in the office just about every day. No wonder a lot of people in New Orleans don't consider early January the Diet Season -- they hold off until after Mardi Gras.

Perhaps this doesn't quite fit the topic, but anyway. ...
On last night's episode of Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, the perp had a pet dog, and that dog was ... a Blue Heeler! :o

Tonight my friend and I stopped at Dairy Queen and each got an ice cream. I had my cone in one hand and her cell phone in the other and then, because she was driving, my friend asked if I'd hold her cone for a minute. I said, "If I had three hands, I could."
