Fat Tuesday!!...OH BOY does this mean I can EAT and not feel Guilty???



Happy 'FAT TUESDAY' ...I just love that title... just seems to absolve all my eating guilt...at least for one day!! Mardi Gras ...ahhhhh a wonderful fun celebration (wish I was there right now...and could stay through the whole celebration) GREAT Food, Great Libations, Fun People...and enough Color and visuals to last a lifetime. I LOVE New Orleans.
Any who... I just thought in honor of Mardi Gras and Fat Tuesday (Love that name) ...it might be fun to post a couple of pics of necklaces that I made for Richard and myself when we were invited to a big Mardi Gras Party one year... I had so much fun making these....Richard sculpted the Chicken Foot...you would swear it was real, in loving memory of our Pet Chicken 'Hen-Retta'...both necklaces contain 'goodies' I have collected or made over the years ...strong medicine for me I figured... everything has a meaning and memory for Richard and or Me. Anyway, they hang on my studio wall all year...but I wear them this time of the year for a few days...freaks people out at the super market...
All of a sudden I have this MAD DESIRE for a beniet and a cafe au lait...
Happy Fat Tuesday (still lovin that name)
Later,
Jodi

Oh, I love Mardi Gras and I love your necklaces! What a great idea!! I especially love the one with the chicken foot. That's really funny about the people at the supermarket.

Happy Fat Tuesday to you too,
Jamie

Its Shrove Tuesday in the UK today Jodi, otherwise known as Pancake Day.
So for us I suppose it is Fat Tuesday, all that Batter to make the pancakes which we eat with lots of Sugar sprinkled over the top with a Squeeze of Lemon.. Mmmmm

Shrove Tuesday! Wow that is interesting Debbie...I love learning new things...ESPECIALLY when it pertains to PANCAKES...YUM YUM YUM!!! Lemon and sugar sounds heavenly...as a kid we use to put butter jam and a sprinkle of powder sugar...never had syrup.

Happy Shrove Tuesday
