King Théo

Last year, we completely forgot about it but this time we did not forget the "galette des rois" (aka King's cake) and actually celebrated one day ahead of time.

As we are still not sure to what level Théo is allergic to nuts other than peanuts and how dangerous it could be for him to be in contact with almond paste (tree nuts), I substituted the almond paste with apple sauce.

But, it became impossible to find the charms we saved over the years. Probably stuck in one of the unpacked boxes from moving. So we had the idea of using raisins instead! The end result turned out to be really good, and Théo loved it, especially since he is the one who found the "charm"....how surprising was that! Vive le roi Théo and how honored was I when Théo chose me to be his "queen"!

what great pictures of Théo smiling! He sure looks like he enjoyed himself! I am hoping that Rachel wrote this post since Théo picked his 'queen!'
