We found ourselves in the rare situation of being able to spend a week in Montreal, Quebec with a dear friend who was traveling on business (and thus shall remain anonymous). All we had to do was pay for our food, so we decided to go. This is the first of two parts. We had a great time!

Forgive the lateness of this episode, but moving really put us behind schedule. We’ll try to make it up with a ZFC Snack this week though. Without further ado, art imitating life - food in games!

Ep 6 - Carnival Food!
Looking back at this episode, we forgot to even really discuss the origins of the carnival. But, it’s probably nothing you haven’t already seen on the History Channel. In case you missed every show that’s been on about Mardi Gras, check out this great article from Wikipedia about the different carnivals and festivals of the world: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carnival.
