John has New Orleans running through his veins. And, he wants to celebrate this wonderful day with his coworkers. Take a break and sample some homemade seafood etouffee and king cake!

Also starting at 12:30pm is the hour long documentary Mardi Gras: Made in China. Official Selection: Sundance Film Festival. Winner of twenty-one national and international awards, Mardi Gras: Made in China follows the path of Mardi Gras beads from the streets of New Orleans during Carnival - where revelers party and exchange beads - to the disciplined factories in Fuzhou, China - where teenage girls live and sew beads together all day and night.
