ok he...good resolutions!!! an 18 mile walk! wow!! <br /><br />ok here are mine:<br />hit the gym and get my pre-baby body back (duh) <br /><br />and stop talking badly about people- myself included! It's hard not to succumb to the gossip but I am going to try to follow the ol' "if ya don't got nuthin' nice to say, don't say nuthin' at all" rule. I also don't need Abbie hearing me talk about hot "fat" and "disgusting" I am- I want her to have the self-esteem I did not have- after all she is PERFECT! :)Katiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08877359740322356655noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6626505383482771839.post-70253536659119244612010-01-06T15:46:51.745+01:002010-01-06T15:46:51.745+01:00Well, it's the same tradition it seems but a d...Well, it's the same tradition it seems but a different cake.<br /><br />In our cake there is a small king in it (in one of the pieces) whoever gets it is King and gets the cheap paper-crown served with the cake. :)<br /><br />The cake is sweet, mostly with raisins in it. I love it. I always buy one for myself and eat it all alone. No wonder, I get king every year, lol. :DJürghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00728918076762339236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6626505383482771839.post-659171793818477082010-01-06T14:59:48.789+01:002010-01-06T14:59:48.789+01:00The closest we have is a King Cake in New Orleans ...The closest we have is a King Cake in New Orleans for Mardi Gras : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/King_cake<br /><br />In all the time we've been here, I have never tried one of those kings cakes - I should fix that!Miz Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10515500855764454649noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6626505383482771839.post-18708856899845675782010-01-06T14:47:30.298+01:002010-01-06T14:47:30.298+01:00which one of bill do you have there?
