I have heard a lot about this festival. It is a kind of day that one enjoys as the following 40 days one is expected to spendin penance. Do you do penance in those 40 days?

I love hearing about what silly holidays it is each day. I used to celebrate many with my kids when they were little just for the fun of it like national ice cream day and national peanut butter and jelly day etc. How do you plan to celebrate Mardi Gras?
