Fat Tuesday

The day before Lent starts. Some people give up certain foods for Lent, is how I think this whole thing got started. So the day before, you just eat whatever because the following day starts the discipline. Some people give up sweets, some meat and what not. It’s to remind us of what Jesus has done on the cross for us. I, choose not to do Lent this way, I just do things to get closer to God. Kinda step up my spirituality. But here on the island today it’s tradition to gather at our neighbors home next door and she invites our community over for home made “dough boys” and coffee in the morning. Her and her husband use to own a bakery and are amazing dough boy makers. It’s a fun time for food and fellowship together. And the dough boys ... the best!!!!
