		<description>[...] The King Cake tradition came to New Orleans by way of the French settlers around 1870, continuing a custom dating back to twelfth century France. Similar cakes were used then to celebrate the coming of the three wise men calling it the feast of Epiphany, Twelfth Night, or King&#8217;s Day.  The Irish have something similar with Barnbrack.

		<description>Carolyn:  I agree, talk about a dysfunctional relationship.

Jackie - Thanks - I&#039;d be interested to see what the Parisians do to celebrate this holiday - maybe a topic for a post next year.  Thanks for the idea!

Amber - Thank you.  I wonder too, I&#039;m curious too.  Hope you are having fun there - NZ is one of my favorite places.</description>

		<description>wow I&#039;ve learned a lot today. Halloween wasn&#039;t that popular in France during my childhood. It&#039;s become more popular in Paris now in recent years amongst teenagers and adults.</description>

		<description>Phyllis - I cannot believe you only just tried candy corn.  I&#039;ve never been a big fan, but the sweet salty combo of those little guys mixed with peanuts is addicting.

Gera - Glad to have offered you up a sweet treat!  =)

Zerrin - its season is fast approaching and cannot get here soon enough to suit my niece, let me tell you.  The culture and all the different variances are indeed interesting.  

Sophia - well you could have a halloween themed b-day party, maybe?  

Sophie - Thanks!  Glad you liked it,

Claudia - I may still dawn a costume - no competing fairy though  =)  I suspect I am to blame on the garden fairy costume - I sent her a book on fairies for her birthday, which she loved to the point her parents are now tired of the book - must hunt for a new one.  We are now continuously taught lessons on fairies - for example, do you know that they live between the cracks in the sidewalk?  I walk around the cracks when I&#039;m with her,

Brenda - ah tough luck trying to celebrate England - maybe a quick jaunt to Ireland =)  My nephew just turned 1, and I think he&#039;s a pumpkin - .  Kids are so cute at that age.  There&#039;s a neighborhood here in SF that closes its streets and is kids only - the young ones, they go all out - the garages become haunted houses and everyone dresses up, a nice safe place for all the little devils to run loose - that to me is the best time of the year.  Although you may be able to start a new tradition saying that at this age, the candy is meant for the adults.  =)  Best of luck and I cannot wait to read about this adventure.</description>

		<description>I got Roman a little devil constume and can&#039;t wait to put it on him!  Sadly, England leaves a lot to be desired in terms of parties and trick-or-treating.  Not nearly as big here as in the States.  But I guess it might look a little self-serving to take a 6 month-old trick-or-treating anyway, right? :)</description>

		<description>I love Halloween and adore reading of its traditions.  I have always loved the Jack O Lantern story and am so pleased to be reminded of it!  Grand post and Happy Halloween or &quot;boo&quot; to you.  And methinks - you can still don a costume!  (But I love the garden fairy idea - how unique!)</description>
