How The Brinkley's Do Shrove Tuesday

Easter is my favorite religious holiday.  I can't explain it but that is the way it has always been for me.  This year is no different.

Shrove Tuesday -- Fat Tuesday-- Mardi Gras -- whatever you want to call it is chock full of fun!

It started out with the Mardi Gras parade at Bean's school.  It is always a colorful, lively, musical, fun filled event even though it was a little cold.

And then, we had our annual Shrove Tuesday Pancake Dinner at church!  Bacon and sausage and eggs -- oh my!  And pancakes and waffles and toppings!  Coffee, tea, milk and juice.  Quite the spread all cooked by our own and served up -- a good time was had by all.

Such a good time!

And now -- Lent.
