Well, we're still dealing with the kitchen remodel, two of my kids here 
during break, and prep work for a wedding tomorrow (no, not mine- a dear 
friend). This evening my sweetie made black beans and rice, dragged some 
catfish filets through cornmeal and panfried them. I really don't care for 
fish, but it was pretty good.

I am discovering that the Lenten diet is a lot more inconvenient than I'd 
thought. I especially miss milk products.

I'll probably post some thoughts next week, when I've recovered from the 
chocolate-induced coma that I'm sure I'll slip into some time Sunday 
afternoon...
