It is Fat Tuesday and that means Ash Wednesday and Lent loom. I'm sure we're all at least familiar with the idea of giving something up for Lent, so here's my question.

What are you giving up this year? [Not giving something up this year? Make something up!]

I've never practiced Lent.
I did swear one year, after some boy frustration, that I was giving up men for lent. That didn't work out so well. lol

I am rather disappointed that Austin doesn't have a Polish population and there is no place I can get a pączki.

ahahah! One year my 'New Year's Resolution' was to become a lesbian, for much the same reason. ;-) It didn't work out for me either.

I should have put in my post that I don't really associate my giving up something with Lent so much as time it the same. Giving up a bad habit, or instituting a good one are always a good idea, Lent is just an easy time to do it.

Paczki! Mmmm. You can't even find them in the in store bakery of a larger grocery? That's where I find them here and there's no real Polish population here anymore.

I don't think so. HEB is very locally oriented (they only sell 3 flavors of juicy juice and it pisses me off!) and I don't know that there's ever been Polish people around here. I suppose I could look, I need to get ziplocks as it is.
