The simoneink team had such a blast at the second annual Bayou Gras Celebration at Bayou Bakery, Coffee Bar & Eatery (we missed our Miss Melissa though!) The day started out with the Fox 5 team and Annie Yu, teaching them all about the second line, Hurricanes, and the history of Mardi Gras. They may have been novices when they first walked in, but by the end of the day they were sayin’ “N’awlins,” “praah-leens,” and “ben-yays” like pros.
Next up, it was back to the office to get ready. After hours of cutting, Facebook posting, a few last minute trips to the eatery, it was time for CELEBRATING. Being able to throw beads in the Clarendon Parade and chow down on Raw Oysters from Rappahannock River Oysters, true Hurricanes from Masked Mixologist Gina Chersevani, Peppa-Weenies, Gumbo & more all made it feel like home. Already can’t wait til next year!
