Mudbugs and Marti Gras!

Brian scoops up a bowl of Death by Chocolate.

Josh and Gretchen share a laugh.

Tom Duddy takes a bite out of Death!

Last night, the Household, accompanied by Val Chapman (one of our good friends who has joined us in the work of the People of Praise) and Ken Keane (a generous POP member from Minneapolis who gave up his week to volunteer in Allendale), went to watch some Shreveport Mudbug's Hockey. It was an exciting game that ended in a tie, and thus went into overtime, followed by a shoot-out. In the end, the Mudbugs won the victory! WAY TO GO BUGS! We returned home exhausted and a bit hoarse from cheering.
Upon arriving back at Yale Avenue, we all enjoyed a delicious dessert of "Death by Chocolate" in celebration of Fat Tuesday. Each of us had more then our fill, and afterwards we couldn't do anything but lounge around and sigh. Brian admitted that initally he thought that the dessert's name was sort of stupid; however, after he consumed his bowl of rich goodness, he comprehended the truth behind the title.
