Mardi Gras in London?

The picture is actually from Mardi Gras in Louisiana last year, but we wanted to have a little party here in London and invite over some friends.

We'd shipped over all of our decorations, so we were able to dress up the apartment with beads. Tony made a big pot of Jumbalaya, and I made a batch of Hurricanes and a King Cake.



It was fun dressing up the place and inviting a few friends over.








It reminded me of some of the great dinners we threw with friends back home. In many ways, it was about recreating some of the life we had back in Los Angeles.

And yes, we got just a little tipsy on the Hurricanes. . .
