Whenever we have an excuse to celebrate something, we do! Of course, Mardi Gras gives us the chance to introduce and experience some traditional New Orleans style merriment. No parades or galas, but plenty of beads and king cakes! Making our own king cakes with their hidden “babies” provided us lots of fun, but not so easy explanations. Sometimes it is just best to enjoy the tradition without all the background info!

Three babies and one power ranger found–only had 3 babies and 4 groups–thus, the power ranger!
