Season Of Mardi Gras

by Lisa's * Everyday Life

So today I’am talking about the Season of Mardi Gras. Yes if you live in South Louisiana you consider this a season. The date changes because of Easter-

Mardi Gras is usually set 47 days before Easter. In any given year, Mardi Gras will fall on any Tuesday between Feb. 3 and March 9. These two dates are extra special, because Mardi Gras will fall on them only once in a lifetime, each occurring roughly once every 100 to 150 years.

Which this year is the last day before ASh Wednesday =which is the first day of Lent.
