Mardi Gras = Fat Tuesday when you convert French = English.  And it is referring to the practice of the last night of eating richer, fatty foods before the ritual fasting of the Lenten season, which starts on Ash Wednesday, tomorrow. 

I have only been to New Orleans one time....and boy did I LOVE it!!!  I mean, I wanted to move there and my other half thought I was NUTS!  Like...these ladies...type of nuts!

Seriously?  Just. Plain. Wrong. All. Types. Of. Wrong!

But, this was circa 2003, prior to devestation of Katrina.  (Not the picture, but when I wanted to move to NOLA.)  I wanna go back.  Did I mentioned I loved that city?  The food, the city, the architecture, the people, and their accent!  Love it.

Celebrate Mardi Gras!  Celebrity Style!
