Dessert was a surprise twist - a traditional French cake that is used to celebrate the Epiphany.
In every cake, they bake a porcelain figurine – if you find it, you are the King/Queen for the day! (and you hope you find it before you bite into it….)
Anyway, we had four cakes and the first three were found rather quickly so I did not think much of it….
Until staring back at me when I removed a layer of crust was a figurine that looked like the Baby Jesus you would place in a Nativity scene!!
Since it’s a new thing for me, I had to do some research….

So, now that you have read all about it….
All Hail Me – Queen Dizzy Vizzy!!!
(LOL – like that would EVER work!)
