Well, I started Lent hoping that giving up meat and chocolate would make me want it less. I’d hoped that by living without the two things I’d realize that I can live without them in my life, and I’d make all of these healthy choices in place of meat and chocolate.
But instead of meat, I ate grilled cheese and pierogies and pizzas.
And instead of chocolate I made cinnamon streusel muffins, ate laffy taffy, and butterscotch chips.
And I also realized, that I really like meat. I don’t need it every day, but I do like it occasionally.
But, chocolate…that’s another story.
