Evy: Mardi Gras (Fat Tuesday)

For all my Louisiana friends -- and just us in the South in general -- Mardi Gras (a.k.a. Fat Tuesday) is a very important time!!! Parades, king cake, beads, and dressing up (or, in New Orleans's case, dressing down) are all important aspects of this thoroughly celebrated holiday. I personally think that Mardi Gras floats and parades, though loud and extravagant, are all in good fun and are just like Christmas trees on Christmas: needed, though sometimes a hassle.
