    Let the Good Times Roll on Happiness is Homemade

    Feb 24, 2019 · 1 Comment

    We are in a Mardi Gras mood with our features this week. Even though I have never made it to New Orleans I always celebrate Mardi Gras by stuffing myself with Cajun food to tide me over for the fast on Ash Wednesday.

    Check out this post if you want more Mardi Gras crafts, activities and recipes.

    Celebrate a Kid Friendly Mardi Gras at home with these fun Mardi Gras crafts, activities and Cajun and Creole Foods.

    Those of you outside of the Gulf Coast might not be familiar with Mardi Gras. The literal translation is Fat Tuesday, the Day before Ash Wednesday when you eat all of the fatty sweet foods in your home before Lent begins. But, in New Orleans and the surrounding areas the celebration has become a weeks long secular party filled with parades and music and beads that can start as early as January 6th.

    I hope the features this week inspire you to celebrate the spirit of Mardi Gras at home with recipes, crafts and tablescapes. And since we are learning about the world, I added one worldly DIY project.

    Stop by the featured posts and say hi from the Happiness is Homemade Krewe (that's how they spell crew in NOLA 😉 )

    Laissez les bons temps rouler!

    ~Audrey from Munofore

    Get inspired to deck out your own table with this Mardi Gras Tablescapes from The Painted Apron.

    These No Sew Mardi Gras Masks from The Scrap Shoppe Blog are fun and festive and easy too.

    The Mardi Gras Layered Jello from WonderMom Wannabe would be a fun treat for everyone.

    What would Mardi Gras be without King Cake? Intelligent Domestications has a simple recipe to replicate this traditional treat at home.

    This World Map Desk from Pillar Box Blue doesn't necessarily fit in with the Mardi Gras theme, put I thought it was a great project that is simple to do especially when you can't find the right size desk for your home.

      Thank you for featuring my Mardi Gras table this week Audrey! There are lots of places in the coastal South that celebrate Mardi Gras, I hope you get to experience it some time! But stuffing yourself with Cajun food is a great way to celebrate too!
