Because we don’t eat and indulge enough during the holidays, here’s an excuse for you to eat some more today, on January 6. It’s a French tradition, la Galette des rois, or Kings’ cake, is eaten on Epiphany Day.
No need to twist your arm to eat it, I promise. It’s just amazingly good stuff. A nicely golden puff pastry filled up with a frangipane. Frangipane is a filling made with almond, it also has butter and sugar. Admit it, you can’t go wrong.
La galette des rois is the reason you need to push your new year resolution to later. How can you resist that buttery pie?
Speaking of which, I am not a big believer in New Year resolutions, why do people feel like a resolution should be taken on a new year, new month or a new week? I know that there is this sense of clean slate but I kinda of think I can be on a Tuesday, 14 of the month, in March? or July? Why not?
Regardless, El Cubano decide to get healthier since he tends to be the picky eater of the house and started exercising. So to encourage him, while he exercises downstairs, I do cardio upstairs. The kids love it, they jump for 30 minutes. Let’s see how long we last!
