Starts with "G": What does the word "Gras" stand for in 'Mardi Gras'?  Answer:  highlight the blank area below 
Mardi is the French word for Tuesday, and gras means “fat.” In France, the day before Ash Wednesday came to be known as Mardi Gras, or “Fat Tuesday.”

This year Mardi Gras was on February 13.  Our younger daughter brought us these two small cakes as a Mardi Gras present.

A FavoriteMy favorite today will be Green 
Grasshopper.  I have forgotten where I found this green guy grasshopper.  Maybe in the Grocery store garden section? 
  
Read more about him in my 2010 blog post, click here.

One of my reader commenters there said of this, 
"that grasshopper is a good old green soul
and as Kermit has taught us - it's not easy being green
I think he needs a good home and a loving friend
and I think you fit the bill
"


Tom's choice, "Ground":  In the move we've lost our meat grinder.  No more ground baloney.  I'll have to put my teeth in before I eat, or really chew hard.  (directions for the above recipe, click here
 

For James, Reflections and/or Street/Candid Captures:  She is supposed to be telling a joke.  Her jokes sometimes are kind of corny. We have a second row seat, our pew.
