How to use Mardi Gras in a sentence?
Current king cake rituals in New Orleans evolved from the late 1800s when Mardi Gras Krewes( a term for parade and party organizing society groups) used King Cakes to choose queens and kings to preside over weekly balls, beginning with the Twelfth Night Ball.
I want to be very clear. Mardi Gras 2021 is not canceled. It is going to look different. The mayor has been very consistent about saying that at every stage.
Like during a traditional Mardi Gras event, everyone needs to exercise personal safety and have a safe and wonderful event.
We are happy to see the people of New Orleans finally able to return to normal and enjoy the Mardi Gras season, that is exactly what we have been advocating for.We are furious to see our so-called city leaders violating their own mask mandate all through the carnival season while demanding that ordinary citizens and children remain masked. The hypocrisy and privilege will no longer be tolerated. The silence from our state legislature is deafening. We see you, and we are coming for you.
We are shocked that Facebook would censor the king cake baby, one of the quintessential traditions of the Mardi Gras culture, obviously the folks at Facebook have never tasted the sweet deliciousness of a traditional or filled King Cake. If they had, they would understand the deep passion that runs in Louisiana for king cakes of all varieties, and the little babies that live inside them.
