The villagers? Oh Dear God, the villagers! What happened to the villagers? I’m afraid to look in the litter box now! 
King Cake is the New Orleans-Louisiana-Central Gulf Coast version of the cake that was traditionally served from Twelfth Night until Ash Wednesday. Some versions are similar to fruitcake with a bean baked in to it. The person who got the bean was King For The Day. The NOLA version is somewhat like a large sweet roll with a plastic baby inserted in it. The tradition is that whoever finds the baby buys the next King Cake. It gets old pretty fast and even though I’ve lived here for nearly 30 years, I’m not super crazy about King Cake. However, the blueberry and cream cheese filled version from Paul’s Bakery in Picayune MS is pretty darn good, so I’ll indulge in ONE for Twelfth Night.
