Good Friday today
Only two 'Jinzvar' left - Today and Ash Wednesday.
At home we were served Canji or Pez whole day today.
Pez with 'Miskutt' or 'Hareacho' or 'Katlecho' or yesterday's leftover 'attoulo
kolli'
Strictly No Fish No meet today.
Because, today is the day Lord Jesus Christ died on the Cross

Today, my mother used to give me 'Chaar Anne' i.e. 15paise for Jesus and 10
paise for O/L of 7 Sorrows. But I put 10 paise to Christ and 5 poixe to Saibinn
the remaining 10 paise I spent to buy 'gorom gorom bhoje' which were available
just outside the church. We could smell/flavour of 'Bhoje' right inside the
Church around 6.00pm onwards. Bhoje then sold at the rate of 2p or 5 for 1o
poixe
Today, we attended the church say at 3pm and stayed there till 8.00pm as this
was the time the Good Friday ceremony used to get over,
I, know now, this time is reduced by keeping two Images of 'Crucified Jesus
Christ' for public veneration or kissing with two money collection trays or
boxes.
Two crucifixs at one place does not really look good.
