[Sca-cooks] a Lenten question, and a frivolous answer

[Sue Clemenger]

Oooh, I do sympathize!
I bought half a pound of very, very nice chocolates from a regional 
candy place 4 days before the start of Lent, at which point, I had *no* 
idea I was going to be doing this.  The box is still in the kitchen 
cabinet, but oy! have I got the munchies....
I lucked out for Holy Week, though.  Our Spring Feast event is the 
Saturday before Palm Sunday, so I'll still be able to eat meat and 
cheese and such.
