Epiphany

January 6 is The Feast of the Three Kings. The Feast of the Epiphany. The 12th Day of Christmas. 12th Night. The beginning of Mardi Gras.

One of my coworkers brought a Rosca de Reyes. It is the Mexican version of a King Cake. It tasted like pan dulce.

It's a long Mardi Gras season this year. Mardi Gras is on March 1 so there is plenty of time for revelry and debauchery.

As I See It - 02.07.16 - Better Late Than Never

And so, I was a bit tardy in decorating The Calvinator's Crib for Mardi Gras. I never put up the bunting or wreath but I did pull together a little tableau and threw a hat on The Calvinator. And all of this was done while I was trying to pack for my trip to The Big Easy. To round out the day, I ate some New Orleans Ice Cream.

As I See It - 02.06.16 - MSIO Ball III

It was the evening of Mystic Society of Isis and Osiris Ball III at the Power Center. This event is part Krewe of Olympus-Texas ball with a some Mystery & Fantasy Mardi Gras Party elements. Whatever it is, it was a fun time at The Power Center!
