Ash Valentines Day

Today is a weird day for Christians. It's Ash Wednesday - a day of fasting - and also Valentine's day.

Cartoon  of a woman opening a Valentine's day heart shaped box and a poem falls out of it. The poem says "Valentines are red, Wednesday's ashes are gray, You can't spell Valentine without 'Lent' on this day." 

I will be observing Ash Wednesday and in lieu of Valentine's day today I'll be celebrating Discount Chocolate Day tomorrow when all the chocolate goes on sale.
