re: Tomorrow is Ash Wednesday... Do you participate in Lent and/or no meat on Fridays

I am catholic, and I think you have a point. I don't go all out with seafood, because it's a treat for me. I normally do simple grilled cheese or pb&js. Tomorrow, Ash Wednesday, and Good Friday, the Passion are days of not only abstinence but fasting as well. So, I'll probably have coffee for breakfast, a small smoothie or Gatorade for lunch and a humble no meat meal for supper. It's a good practice if you follow the spirit of it. I don't do Mardi Gras either for that matter...
