FAT TUESDAY

We Episcopalians sure do partake in "lassiez le bon temps roule" to the max! After a full afternoon of prepping, flipping flap-jacks, and toe tapping to the New Orleans brass band while taking money at church, I'm celebrating Mardi Gras in my own "fat" way ...
...Trader Joes's fresh pizza crust (to make a personal cheese pizza), a salad, and a nice glass of red wine.

Tomorrow Lent begins tomorrow which means no Ice Cream 'til Easter for this Bird!

I had the fattest lunch today with my fiance! Chicken finger pita, fries and a small greek salad. Now I'm giving up shopping and pizza! :)

Ice cream! Ah, I would sure miss that. I'm giving up magazines, they are my weakness.

yum yum trader joes! I can't decide if or what I am going to give up this year. After losing my $$ tonight, maybe it should be wine and bunco!

I always buy the TJ's dough and freeze it! Sometimes I make calzones, too. And you know what also goes great with this is their frozen stoplight pepper strips! Those things are probably the best convenience item I buy!!!

I'm giving up fast food. I had my last ChickfilA tonight, and yes, I supersized!
