It is wildly popular here in Louisiana where so many of us are Catholics and follow a lot of your traditions, too. The King's cake is served on Twelth Night and is sort of like a coffee cake, if you would. It originally was decorated in white and gold colors, and only served on that one night but now there are cakes served all during this season...most of the cakes are the traditional Mardi Gras colors..purple, green and gold...inside each cake, after it is baked of course, a tiny plastic "baby", representing Jesus,<br />is placed.....when the cake is served at a party the person who receives the slice with the "baby" in it has to give the next party......it is all good natured fun derived from an old traditional..!! Believe me, there are LOTS of parties during this time! Mardi Gras is a fun<br />season, with all of the different Krewes (named after Roman Gods or Goddess or something to do with the season) and each Krewe has a chosen King and Queen who preside over their Ball, held during the weeks before Ash Wednesday and the beginning of the Lenten season. The Balls are usually elaborate, formal ocassions and traditionally gifts are given to the King and Queen and Court members, to honor their big "night" of Royality. Just before Ash Wedsneday there are<br />many parades held.....New Orleans and Mobile, Alabama have a large number of these, the smaller towns, only one.<br /> So, we go from celebrating the birth of the Christ Child, to the King's arrival, bearing gifts, to what some consider a rather pagan ritual of celebrating by the Mardi Gras season...Ash Wednesday brings<br />all of this to a halt, and the Lenten season is solemnly observed.<br /> This is long.....I was just wondering if your country has these<br />traditions, too!!!<br /> Thanks.....Hugs, FrancyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-645394115430726687.post-12211355535440230592012-01-08T23:05:52.272-08:002012-01-08T23:05:52.272-08:00Your table is beautiful!!

I was still just so exhausted from yesterday, and my body was hurting so much until I finally broke down and took some Advil. I hate taking medicines of any sort unless I absolutely have to! Anyway...it is really nice to see posts celebrating Three Kings Day. It kind of gets lost in all the hoopla & commercialism of Christmas. This is a perfect table setting to honor the day. It is pretty but enjoys a simplicity that is appropriate for the occasion. The flowers are so pretty, too. I miss getting huge bunches of fresh flowers every week! :-( They just make a gal feel good! The tea chest is a lovely prize to give away. Congratulations on doing your first giveaway! They're fun! I've just done one so far, but I would like to do lots more. Have a great evening, Fabby!

What amazingly inspiring blog post...Dearest Fabby,<br /><br />What amazingly inspiring blog posts you always have to share with us! Love your cloche especially!<br /><br />Thank you so very much for so generously and kindly gracing our blogs with your various lovely Tuesday tea party links. Thanks also for visiting our blogs time and time again and leaving sweet words of comment and encouragement with your participation for our Tuesday Tea's for our, 'Teapot And Tea Things Tuesday', as well as for my, 'Tuesday Tea For Two', weekly blog tea party.<br /><br />Pam and I are going to very much miss you as we leave blog land for quite a long while. This is due to very important personal reasons that were unforseen; (even two weeks ago). <br /><br />Dear Pam and I had a long and friendly conversation just two days ago. Upon my informing Pam that I needed to 'bow out gracefully', from blogland for the forseeable future, she requested that I also send this message of deepest gratitude and regret on her behalf also. As I bid you a fond farewell and as we both leave you and other very lovely fellow bloggers for the time being my friend. <br /><br />Have blessed New Year in 2012!<br /><br />Hugs and blessings from Wanda Lee, (and Pam; Pam is from her own, 'Breath Of Fresh Air', blog.)Wanda Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12272566299798973586noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-645394115430726687.post-34135202968745347692012-01-08T16:42:02.350-08:002012-01-08T16:42:02.350-08:00I just recently discovered the Pink Saturday.
