Doughnut Day - Fat Tuesday - Mardi Gras



Back home in Pennsylvania Dutch Country - today is Doughnut Day. It was the custom to make fresh doughnuts on the last day before Lent. Tomorrow is Ash Wednesday.

Down here in Tallahassee it is called Fat Tuesday. Over in New Orleans tonight is the biggest night of Mardi Gras.

Lulu and I celebrated by driving to the local Krispy Kreme and had doughnuts with milk.



It is pretty cool watching them deep fry today's stock. I had a chocolate glazed with yellow custard fill - and also a plain cake doughnut to not break my diet :-) Lulu had one glazed doughnut.
