French King Cake – Galette des Rois

January 9, 2010

We have had our King Cake for the year. To be honest we had more than one. But, who’s counting? Photo of the piece that had the trinket inside (also shown). My youngest daughter wanted to wear her crown outside to play in the snow. :)

Back with more snow

January 8, 2010

We got the computer fixed! It has double the memory and a new graphic card. It was hard to be offline. I found myself wanting to go online to look for recipes, to read blogs and update my own blog, to keep up with my family and friends on facebook, dying to use Google to [...]
