Title: Oh man!
Post by: sapphirehart on February 10, 2006, 10:58:51 AM
One of our distributor's sent us a King Cake via Fed Ex this morning to celebrate Mardi Gras.  It's got cream cheese and blueberry filling.  I can't have any of it.  That is so not fair.

I miss Butterbraids.  I like King Cakes, too.

That's the same thing the FedEx driver told me.  I excused him for not knowing since he is so young.

They're awesome.

When I was interning at WMMO in Orlando, we got one sent to us.  Evidently they put a plastic baby in the center somewhere, and if you get the plastic baby in your piece, you get good luck.

No one told me until I bit into it and cracked it in half.

Don't say you can't have any.  A couple of bites won't hurt you.

Unless you have diabetes or hypoglycemia.

Did you hear about the new insulin inhaler?

I have decided to forego snacking on the King Cake in favor of treating myself to a chili cheese burger this weekend.   Yummy!
