Mardi Gras is Upon Us!

by Marye on January 5th, 2008

Mardi Gras is nearly here. Kings Cake ( check Baking Delights in a day or so for a recipe), coins, masks, mayhem…

Cafe Du Monde- Look you are having a Mardi Gras Party, right? You have to have the coffee. If you have never tried this you need to. Rich, chocolate-y and a very unusual flavor. If you don’t have this how are you going to wash down that king’s cake? Coffee

You can make your own, authentic, chicory coffee by using half coffee and half chicory  in the coffee maker. So if you are using 1/2 c ground coffee, you would use 1/4 c ground coffee and 1/4 c chicory. You can probably find chicory at a local health food store or in some markets. Personally, I like it made cafe au lait, half of a cup of sweetened hot dark coffee and half of the cup  steamed cream.

Instead of those cheap necklaces what about Java Jewels? Made from real coffee beans!
