I live in Louisiana about 2 hours away from New Orleans in an area called Acadiana which has a large Cajun population (though I am not Cajun). Mardi Gras is a big deal in most of South Louisiana.
Happy Mardi Gras, Andrea! We used to live in New Orleans, so we celebrate MG, too - we had a party this weekend and are going to a friend's house for dinner (they used to live in NOLA too) for our annual Popeye's. I also order Zapp's for the occasion!
I didn't realize you lived in the Acadiana region. We took our kids there last year for spring break and had a blast!
Happy Mardi Gras! Do you live in New Orleans or Louisiana?
ReplyDeleteI was wondering the same thing as Juju!! ;)

I saw some of the parades online today.
