2 DAYS TO GO

In two days I'm going to celebrate Easter with a HUGE milk shake. HUGE. Like as big as my good ol friend Peter Yokota's head.

For 38 days I have not eaten a piece of chocolate, not one skittle, no ice cream, no cookies, nothing that could be declared a sweet or a dessert. I have not eaten the staff birthday cake, no easter jelly beans, not even didn't eat my stupid fortune cookies at Panda Express. It has been my first experience of giving up something for lent.

I have kept this candy jar in my office to lure people in like fish to my friendship bait and it works. People keep coming in and eating it, which is great but I have not eaten any. None. I just smile and say, "Enjoy". I have been trying to turn my face to Easter every time I've been tempted to eat it, which seems like every day. But alas... my fast is almost over.

PRAISE JESUS FOR THE RESURRECTION... AND FOR MY SWEET TOOTH.
