We always sacrifice any sort of desserts for the Lenten 40 days. I’m down an honest 4lbs.
Rummaging through the cookie closet only to be reminded it’s Lent is also a good reminder that it is the Easter season.
I still follow the Catholic faith as laid out in the New Testament. While too many of the Catholic clergy have/had fallen into depravity (and that’s for God to forgive, not me), and I might take issue with some of the hierarchy’s stances on certain issues, none of that diminishes what Jesus taught.
