title: Where do I put Laravel 4 helper functions that can display flash messages?
body: <p>I've written a simple <code>display_messages()</code> function that will search <code>Session::get('errors')</code> for flash data and echo it to the screen.</p>
  
  <p>Where do I put this function? In Codeigniter, you had a helpers folder where you could stick all your little global helper methods. </p>
