Mardi Gras/Shrove Tuesday
Today is Shrove Tuesday, or, as it is known in the French speaking world and sometimes elsewhere, Mardi Gras. I was not sure what to share today about it, so I just thought instead of just picture of pancakes (by the way I refuse to call today Pancake Day), I would share one page from Charlie Brown's Fourth Super Book of Questions and Answers. One of the best sources of information I had as a child, before the internet, even though a friend of mine had the on people and culture. Anyway, so there is more info on the next page, but all the same, here is some interesting facts about today.

You can't find a more worthy source of information than Charlie Brown! I also had a childhood friend who had loads of books and didn't really care about them. I coveted those books. Someone invited me to New Orleans for Mardi Gras. Alas, I could not and would not go, as I did not even know the man who issued the invitation.
Love,
Janie
