For Lent, I usually give something up. I've given up candy (duh, doesn't everyone at least once in their Catholic lifetime?), alcohol, and this year I'm giving up meat, makeup (yikes) and Starbucks. I have failed twice: I love Starbucks oatmeal and sometimes, face powder is a must. But I have had no meat. And whenever Danny suggests hamburgers or steak or something for dinner, I remind him, "Not until Easter." Maria has, apparently, caught on to that.
Mama: "Maria, what is it that you can't eat until after Easter?"
Maria: "Ice cream. Oh, yeah, and bacon."
Mama: "Ice cream and bacon?! haha, why?"
Maria: "Because I have to wait. Uhhh, mom? What would happen if I ate ice cream before Easter?"
Mama: "Nothing at all."
Maria: "So I can still eat it?"
Mama: "Yes."
Maria: "ok, good."
