Joho Baby Cake

David Weinberger is puzzled by the classic Mardi Gras "King Cake" where they bake a little plastic baby inside the cake. He's right, the warning label is way weird "CHOKING HAZARD, NON-EDIBLE BABY INSIDE THIS CAKE!"

We had one at church on Sunday and ate a lot of slices trying to find that darned baby. Mardi Gras is all about partying as it ushers in Lent which is all about NOT partying, but giving up stuff. I'm still trying to decide what to give up for Lent. Chocolate is a usual choice, but I don't really want to go THAT far.
