LUNDI GRAS : RED BEANS AND RICE Parade

Carnival is always such a busy and exciting time of year, and in the days leading up to Fat Tuesday, there is no shortage of things to do. The Monday immediately before Mardi Gras Day, also called Lundi Gras, “Fat Monday,” or “Shrove Monday” holds its own traditions and celebrations. Lundi Gras this year falls on Monday, Feb. 28 Think of it as pre-partying for Fat Tuesday (as if the preceding weekend won’t be enough).
