Today is Mardi Gras, the last day of indulgence before the start of the Lenten season.
Yay!! At least until tomorrow morning.
As y’all know, I go all out for Lent. I give up booze, and junk food, and sweets, and sodas, and fatty foods. This makes for a very cranky Sith Empress for a few days, and then I am back to my normal Death Star-shiny self. One good thing about giving up so much stuff is the lightness of being. By that, I mean the loss of holiday pounds that invariable stick around after the holidays like an unwanted guest.
I’m already looking forward to Easter Sunday.
So go and have some fun, and enjoy festivities and drink and food and revelry. Catch some beads and sing along. For tomorrow will come soon enough.
And may your morning be free of nausea and headaches 😀

I did all that on Jan 3. 😉 (Will eat clean until April 4th when program is over)
I’d suggest light midmorning and mid afternoon snacks (healthy) to keep from feeling hungry. Or have someone hide the machete, whichever is safest for the mortals.

Oh, I do eat fruits and veggies throughout the day.
I don’t like prison 😉

What is this Lent you speak of?
March 4th, 2014 at 12:40 PM
Shut up and go back to being Baptist 😉

It’s like you giving up social media site with faces, GML, only more soulfully fulfilling… 😀

I miss my Paczki’s..
March 4th, 2014 at 10:05 PM
what ever did happened to him after he left the governor’s office in new york?
March 5th, 2014 at 7:05 AM
He’s probably enjoying life while he can and saying “I told you so” a lot 😉

I’m not Catholic but a former Baptist and active church goer, I am giving up soda* for Lent
*Save for Vernor’s when mixing drinks with it
Not fizzy drinks, mind you. That would mean beer.

Uh huh 😀
March 4th, 2014 at 10:07 PM

March 5th, 2014 at 7:06 AM
I can’t wait for chocolate bunny ears 😀
March 4th, 2014 at 10:13 PM
I thought you were giving up water this year. Oh, wait… Booze. That’s harsherer…
March 5th, 2014 at 7:07 AM
Eh, it’s easier, way easier, than giving up chocolate.
March 5th, 2014 at 9:33 AM
Nice guy that I am, Ms. Aggie, I’ll take up your slack in the good foods, good drinks department (within moderation) until conscience allows you to resume your normal intake of same.

I know I can count on you, my friend 😀
