i'm biased bc i am also indian and in massachusetts and relate to that aspect of most of the stories. runner up is bliss montage by ling ma… i just love everything she does. honorable mentions are when watched by leopoldine core, self-help by lorrie moore, and back talk by danielle lazarin -- read all of these years ago and i keep returning
One of my colleagues brought King cake today and I got to try some for the first time. I have to say it tasted pretty good (I wanted to go back for more 💀).
She then told me about the plastic baby baked inside the cake, and that whoever finds it gets good luck.
I didn’t expect to be the one to find it haha. How cool is that! First time eating it and I get the baby. It really made me day hehe.
I looked it up and the little baby is called a fève.
