Ash Wednesday

Dear Social Media Pan Cake bakers,

Tomorrow is Ash Wednesday, the first day of lent for the Christians who commemorate the 40 days Jesus spent in the desert in preparation for his ministry. Which will eventually lead to his crucifixion on Good Friday and resurrection on Easter Sunday.

Yours sincerely,

A Fellow Pan Cake Lover.
