Lundi Gras?

Before we can celebrate Fat Tuesday around here I have to prepare for gumbo fixing.. that requires me to fix home made chicken stock. Yes, I am a freak. I am a freak that needs to find some file and some Joe's Stuff...

If you know where in Chicago I can find it, I would love to know.

Oh, and I will be making a king cake... but not the NOLA version, a french one... Galette des rois.
Hmmm... maybe I should make a couple of them... and send them off with the chicklettes. No time to find plastic baby Jesus'. I guess I will have to use the old fashioned bean method.
