Mmmm, King Cake

My family sent me a king cake for Mardi Gras. I, of course, forgot to take a picture of it so I stole this one from the internet. Diego had never had king cake and he LOVED it! It's basically just a sweet bread. Go here if you want to read more about the history but basically it represents when the 3 Wise Men came searching for the Baby Jesus on Jan 6th. I especially liked the school traditions. We would have king cake in school all season long!
