A big pot of Jambalaya is so good on a cold winter day. It freezes quite well too.

I won't make anything myself, but I will stop at our neighborhood bakery for a few patczki's (or however you spell it!) You know, the jelly filled donuts for Fat Tuesday!

I will be preparing some Cajun Coffee and making a King Cake! We are actually going to a Mardi Gras potluck, where there will be lots of gumbo and jambalaya, but I am providing the dessert. Cheers to all!
