It's so good to have traditions to follow. I keep thinking I ought to give up tatting for Lent - but I think that would be beyond me!Maureenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02383223698959645624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6773419808528632842.post-362344084338929512010-02-16T20:24:56.330+00:002010-02-16T20:24:56.330+00:00Well, even though I was not aware it was Shrove Tu...Well, even though I was not aware it was Shrove Tuesday, I have been snacking on pretzels, so I think I'm meeting the spirit of the day.

I find these subjects fascinating. Especially 'why' we give up luxuries for Lent (if we are so disposed). I did not grow up with these traditions; but, they are a part of our church year. It is nice to know there is a common sense 'why' behind the customs; and, very good that they are not lost and become empty ritual. Thank you for the teaching on this Shrove Tuesday.
