Laskianen is the Finnish word for Shrove Tuesday, which
is also known as Fat Tuesday or Mardi Gras.
We will meet at the Dogwood shelter at Crabtree Park, Cary
to
enjoy hot pea soup, special Finnish home-made desserts, beautiful spring
weather, and each other’s company.

Coordinator: Tiina Folley and Laura Sämpi.

Marimekko’s Tasaraita shirt
One year at the Laskiainen Party, we took this
great picture.
:
Let us take another, bigger one this year. So, I ask everybody who has a Marimekko’s Tasaraita shirt to wear it.
If you do not have a Tasaraita, please,
wear some other Finnish shirt if you have, like this shirt Jukka wore last year: “A Finn’s Feelings.”
