We’re Celebrating Mardi Gras, Y’all!

Mar 1, 2022

Laissez le bon temps rouler! Let the good times roll!

Today is Mardi Gras, also known as “Fat Tuesday,” is a holiday of feasting prior to the Lenten Season of Christianity. It is a joyful, hearty holiday that also dates back to roots in pagan springtime ritual and fertility rites. It’s celebrated with eating rich foods, fatty sumptuous treats, imbibing in cheerful cocktails and toasts, and of course the classic Mardis Gras parade featuring floats, confetti, and beads! In short, it’s a really good time for all.
