In Scandinavia the day is reserved for the serving of a particular sweet pastry. It’s French expression is known as Mardi Gras and it marks the end of the celebration of Epiphany and the transition to the season of Lent with its tradition of fasting and self denial. Before we ‘give something up for Lent’ we celebrate and feast on Fat Tuesday.
