King Cakes at Rouses

This is a Louisiana-style King Cake with lemon and cream cheese filling topped with colorful sugary icing. King cakes are part of the tradition for Mardi Gras celebration. We bought this particular king cake at Rouses, our favorite supermarket in Ocean Springs Mississippi.We went to Mississippi last week for Mardi Gras. Did you know that ISLE Hotel and Casino sponsored our stay for three nights and all FREE? Oh, Hubby and I had a wonderful time in the cozy hotel. We saw our family and friends out there and we really enjoyed watching the parade, caught some beads too.Oh, see the little baby at the middle of the cake? It's a trinket which represents Baby Jesus. Actually, King Cake takes its name from the Three Kings.Here's one picture that I took during the D'Iberville Mardi Gras parade. If you want to see more pictures of Mardi Gras Parade, check my other blogs. Thanks for stopping by.

Mardi Gras in D'Iberville

When we live in Mississippi, we are excited of the Mardi Gras Parade. Hubby and I would go to every Mardi Gras parade scheduled in the city and nearby the state such Louisiana and Alabama. This event every year is truly exciting and fun! These guys are giving out hotdogs and burgers for FREE! Such an awesome project huh!The pictures here were taken last year at D'Iberville. We went there as a family because the siblings of my husband were there. They were there first and they told us that this people are giving away FREE food for the crowd! I just admire their cause.I got a hotdog and hubby had a burger. Saves us money really! Everyone enjoyed the FREE food with drinks in can!
Even if the sun shines so bright, the weather is just perfect for me.

I enjoyed my hotdog and mountain dew but look here, these people enjoyed it too! Free Food taste good huh?
