Cakes sound lovely, attack icing or no. Lucky you, to have king cake for breakfast for ten days.
Happy Birthday to your mother!
Hurrah for museum, movie, and bao!
On the subject of mysteries, did (either of) you ever read P.F. Chisholm's Sir Robert Carey novels? A Season of Knives, A Famine of Horses, A Surfeit of Guns, and A Plague of Angels. Set in the Anglo-Scottish Border country in the latter part of Queen Elizabeth's reign, and very nicely done. One character is Kinmont Willie's favourite niece; Marlowe and Shakespeare make appearances in the last one. I keep hoping to see A Quarreling of Lawyers in print, but it doesn't seem to be happening, sadly.
