Today, February 14th is a great day for love. This year it is also the first day of the season known as Lent. Lent is a day to renew our love for Jesus and what he did for us. Some have described the season of Lent as a time to make our hearts ready for Jesus, put him back to the top of our minds as well as remembering Jesus and the resurrection. The word lent comes from the lentclen which means spring. Lent will begin in the winter and go for 46 days including 6 Sundays ending on Easter Sunday. During this period of time a seasons of prayer, fasting, and alms giving will go on. In addition, many will fast and give up something including their ego if that is what they have put above Jesus.
Today, Wednesday February 14th as I said earlier is the first day of lent. Ash Wednesday, the first day of lent, is a day that all are asked to turn their hearts to the feelings of brokenness of Jesus and the need for salvation. During the season of lent there will be much prayer, meditation. Some may feel the best way they can help share is through social media. However, many will attend a mass where they will have a black cross placed on their forehead to stand for the ash. In addition, today as well as every Friday of Lent season followers are not allowed to eat meat.
Today or any day try this great devils egg salad sandwich
6 hard boiled eggs
2-3 tablespoons Miracle Whip Light start with 2 and add more at the end if needed
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
3 tablespoons sweet relish
fresh cracked black pepper to taste
Sprinkle of paprika optional
lettuce for serving (optional)
4 Ciabatta Rolls or any kind you desire
Peel and finely chop your boiled eggs. Add the eggs to a mixing bowl with the Miracle Whip, Dijon mustard, sweet relish, black pepper, and paprika, if using. Fold the ingredients together to create a smooth, well-blended mixture. Toast your buns or your bread. Taste the deviled egg salad for seasoning, build your sandwich, and serve!
Flavor Tips - The amount of mayo and mustard required will depend on how large the yolks are in the eggs and also your personal taste. Be sure to taste as you go to ensure the egg salad is the flavor and texture you are looking for.
Storage – Store leftover egg salad in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-5 days. Be sure to store the bread separately, or it will become soggy.

For me, Lent has started in Summer and will finish in Autumn (Fall). I am in the Southern Hemisphere :) I do have a question... why is the colour purple associated with Lent? I love your recipe by the way :)
