Today is Ash Wednesday. I don't go to Mass anymore and I haven't in a long time, but there were plenty of Ash Wednesdays as a kid that I walked around all day with a cross on my forehead made from the ash of last year's palm fronds. I think Maggot & Clangy did too.

Do you have any weirdness from your childhood or customs in general that are odd?

My Grandfather once tried to push the lump on my brothers head in with a quarter after I whacked him with a rake until my Mother came running in and stopped him. That's all I got. And I just took it for granted that everyone had the ashes on their forehead.
He ain't heavy, he's my brother.

Yep. I used too. But I don't go to Church anymore either. It feels great to not have to worry about not eating meat on Fridays during Lent.

Growing up, the Friday before Easter I went my folks who would take a basket of ham, bread, hard boiled eggs, butter, and other goodies to their church and have our parish priest bless    Priest    the stuff in the basket. We then ate some of those things on Easter Sunday.

Another thing I remember, was on January 1st, or 2nd, my folks would have our parish priest come over to our house, and bless   Priest    the entry way by marking a chalk cross on the door jam, and then walk through the house sprinkling holy water in all the rooms to drive out devil spirits!
They gave him a donation for his blessings efforts.

When I got older, I was not involved with that any longer.

My grandma used to turn her hands into a church. Even until she was almost 90 years old with alzheimers she was still making that stupid church with the steeple and all the people.
