MID AMERICA HEALTH CELEBRATES MARDIS GRAS/FAT TUESDAY!

Do not eat the baby Jesus, please.

Do not eat the baby Jesus, please.

Mardis Gras literally means Fat Tuesday. This celebration has grown in popularity in the recent years. The origin of Fat Tuesday goes back to the Catholic Church and is basically the “last hurrah” before the Lenten season begins, which is a time of fasting, sacrifice and prayer.

A known tradition of Mardis Gras is the King Cake. The cakes are made in a circle, and in early days, a coin or bean was hidden inside the cake, and whoever found the item was said to have good luck in the coming year. Today, bakers now put a small baby, representing the Christ Child in the cake; the recipient is then expected to host the King Cake for the next year!

Mid America Celebrated with our own King Cakes straight from New Orleans!! Mardis Gras beads, gold, purple, and green all around!

It is hard to believe that we are already in the second month of 2009. It seems like 2008 just started. My how time flies when you are having fun.

We also have several career fairs and dental conferences we will be attending. A couple to look forward to are the IDA Conference in May and the ODA conference in August.
