Ash Wednesday

Yesterday, I dropped into a Ladies Club near a church. I thought there would be line dancing there. Instead, all the ladies were sitting around tables, having tea/coffee and cakes. A lady there, who was a minister of the church, asked me would I like to have ashes on my forehead in honor of Ash Wednesday. She had a tiny tin box in her hand. She opened the lid, dipped her thumb in the ashes and made the sign of the cross on my forehead. So, even though I had not gone to Church, I still got ashes on my forehead for Ash Wednesday! LOL!
