King Cake

You know how I mentioned that this time of year brings King Cakes and Mardi Gras, at least for those who happen to be from the New Orleans area. Well, unbeknown to me, my wife was planning to make a King Cake, from scratch. My oh my, this is a new wrinkle to me. I could never remember as a child making a King Cake. We'd always go to a bakery or more likely the grocery store.

Now we have laid down a foundation to not have to pay $40-80 on getting a King Cake shipped to us. It wasn't perfect, but it was a damn good start, and if you look at it... almost imperceptible to what we'd pay to have a King Cake mailed to us.
