Lundi is actually Monday.
I expect if the story I posted up there is true. Mardi Gras would've come first. Dunno.

re: feast days
being a Pagan means you get to celebrate everybody's festivals in a spirit of ecumenicalism without having to go through with the sacrificial parts.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

But! The pyres! The ritual! The knives!
I do love a good sacrifice.

It's actually been a really hard year, when you stop and do the math. Eliot would cry, too, if it didn't take him seventy minutes of therapy, two cocktails, and a Sondheim medley before he can experience a human emotion through the haze of his PTSD.
I do love a good sacrifice.
With pie.

According to my Canadian Friend and her Catholic mother, it's Shrove Tuesday, and they will celebrate by eating pancakes and bacon.

Growing up we referred to it as either Shrove Tuesday or Pancake Tuesday.

Because books.
Damn, we jumped the gun. We had pancakes and bacon for dinner Sunday night.

Dude, I'm so out of the religion loop that it wasn't until high school that I figured out why we had fish Fridays in the cafeteria.

Punishingly Intricate
We'd often have pancakes for dinner, not just on Shrove Tuesday. My brothers and dad would have them with syrup and my mom and I would have them with peach yogurt and call them crepes. I'd feel very sophisticated!
