Tomorrow is Ash Wednesday, the start of the Lenten season! SMS students will attend Mass tomorrow and receive ashes before they begin their school-wide Lenten Retreat.
Today however, is known as Shrove or "Fat" Tuesday. "Shrove" comes from an old English word meaning “to confess”. It is also customary to use up meats, fats, and dairy products before entering the Lenten period of fasting; this led to the name Mardi Gras (French for Fat Tuesday). Some cultures celebrate today with specific foods like pancakes, pączki , cannoli or king cake. Let us know what your favorite Fat Tuesday treat is in the comments!
