Since today is St. Joseph's feast day my cousin said that today was like a Sunday in Lent, you didn't have to give up anything. Is this true or do you still give the thing you gave up today to like TV??
Thanks.

NO!! LOL! Sorry - the feast days in Lent are not "taken off" - unless - as in the case of St. Patrick's Day last Lent - which was on a Friday - certain Bishops gave a dispensation for "corned beef and cabbage".
Sunday's are different. No fasting allowed.
Sorry - no loophole for St. Joe's day!!
