Now that Mardi Gras is over, we will be in Lent until Easter. We are not Catholic, but south Louisiana was heavily French (and briefly Spanish) for about 200 years, so we have a large Catholic population compared to the rest of the state. Our Catholics seem to have a lot of different traditions, at and many are great fun!
Here in south Louisiana a tradition has developed where all the Catholic churches have Lenten Fish Fries on Friday nights that serves as church fundraisers. They have a big turnout of church members cooking at the church. They collect an admission fee from the general public, usually about $10, and you get a plate of freshly fried catfish along with different sides, such as salad, mac and cheese, coleslaw, creamed spinach, hush puppies, french fries etc etc. There's always multiple dessert options, typically cookies/biscuits or cake. Drinks are either water or iced tea. They have rows and rows of tables and benches, so you're sitting pretty close together. It's a fun, casual time with friends and it means I didn't have to cook dinner OR wash dishes!!!!!! RESULT!!!
A group of our friends have started a Lenten Fish Fry CIRCUIT: each Friday during Lent we eat at a different church. We critique them amongst ourselves, just for fun! St. Anselm has the widest variety of side dish options and the best veggies, St. Peter's has live music (acoustic guitar) etc, etc.
Tonight is the first Fish Fry of the season, and we are going to St. Peter's here in Covington- the one with the acoustic guitar to accompany your meal.

My goodness I am so sorry we are losing you Lena and even more sorry you are losing your torts, it must be heartbreaking for you but I am so glad you have found a good home for them. It's great you will be around to settle them in and hopefully you'll be in touch by email with their new keeper to help out and be able to see how they are getting on.
I understand how hard it will be for you to be here with us, but you know where we all are if you feel able to pop in sometime in the future to let us know how you are, but until then I wish you and your family every happiness in your new home/country and hope you settle in quickly. We'll miss you, take care

He's found a good carer, hope he's OK.
I will do - he's not been very sociable this week and not eating as much as usual, I'm glad it's the weekend so I can keep a close eye on him!

I adore hearing stories of peoples regional traditions.
And this one sounds beautiful, social and yummy, too!
I say "Good night" to everyone here.
Sleeping in front of the computer (what I was doing ) is not very comfortable and a sign that it is time to see the bed because the sandman has done his work.
Hope not to see you tomorrow again.

Night night, Sabine.
I am sorry you fell asleep.
But not much happening in here at the moment.
Speak soon.
