Our election for mayor on the island is set for Feb 4. Karnival is Feb 2-7 this year. I'm just waiting for them to announce that Karnival will be either moved up to Jan or postponed a few weeks. Can't have some silly religious celebration in the middle of the election campaigning!
p.s. did you recently have somebody come in and ask for a piece of your special ant cake??
Wayne - nope, no special requests, although I could fill another order for ants in anything you wish, we have plenty of them.
Lordy, I'll never live the ant cake story down.
