Mardi Gras 2016: This is Why I #NOLA.

It's not over yet. Lundi Gras is upon us and that means Orpehus (or a night in) and Fat Tuesday tomorrow. It's been a great MG season but to be honest, I'm looking forward to sending Carnival season packing. It's a marathon and my body is starting to revolt from all the junk and booze I've loaded it up with over the last several days. Nyx Wednesday. Muses Thursday. Endymion Saturday. and Bacchus Sunday. Woof. Hoping a run today helps me recalibrate. But I've never been one to complain for too long about an opportunity to have a 5-day weekend and dance in the streets with friends and family. Below are some highlights of the season thus far.

Breakfast. Lunch. Dinner. 4th Meal. and Everything in Between. KING CAKE. 

A nice change of scene from all things junk food. OYSTERS!

My first parade with V! Glad I got to spend time with my family for Thoth. #PARRAIN. 

So much fun to catch Thoth with my mom and grandma. Watching my grandmother light up at the Blue Angels float brought a huge smile to my face. #FAMILY.

Love spending MG with good friends. The route for Bacchus Sunday. 

You've been good to me this year, Mardi Gras. Here's to you! Cheers.
