bbbearsmom DSIL bought the King Cake at a local bakery here in Houston. Supposed to be "authentic" to New Orleans. I don't find it super dooper, if you know what I mean! It's a sweet bread, usually with cinnamon flavor (sometimes some cream cheese in it like a danish) then it's iced with purple, gold and green powdered sugar icing. But, it's a yearly tradition to start the Mardi Gras festivities.

Hi all! Sparkle, I am sticking with Points Plus (PP), the version of WW before Smart (dumb) Points took over. Why? Because PP works for me if I stay OP.
Today will do some light shopping to fill in produce, mainly fruit, I actually don't need too much but having fresh fruit is important! Will do some cardio at gym, and since it's overcast and lovely out, I may stop by the gardening store to see about a couple of new plants to fill in for my front yard...I also need CAT REPELLANT! No offense to cat owners here but, I fucking hate my neighbors who let their cats roam the neighborhood without collars (so you don't know who to complain to) and don't leave litter boxes out for their cats so they use my nice yard as their litter box. I am so fed up with this that I will put out just about anything to keep these things out of my yard. If anyone has some good ways to repel cats (and dogs though mostly cats), please let me know, I'm all ears! *rant over, wipes drool from chin*
linda72, I though the whole point of a King cake was to get the 'creepy baby' inside...which, I wonder if anyone has ever choked on, they're so damn small!

Yeah, in DSIL's family, they don't worry about the silly little plastic baby. I also think it's dumb! Sorry about the cats in your yard. I've read that putting out cayenne pepper helps. Good luck!
