reminds me of a joke. i hope this doesn't offend the catholics, i find it very funny. (and i laugh at JW jokes)

John Smith was the only Protestant to move into a large Catholic neighborhood. On the first Friday of Lent, John was outside grilling a big juicy steak on his grill.
Meanwhile, all of his neighbors were eating cold tuna fish for supper. This went on each Friday of Lent. On the last Friday of Lent, the neighborhood men got together and decided that something had to be done about John. He was tempting them to eat meat each Friday of Lent, and they couldn't take it anymore.

They decided to try and convert John to Catholicism.

They went over and talked to him. John decided to join all of his neighbors and become a Catholic, which made them all very happy.

They took him to church, and the priest sprinkled some water over him, and said, "You were born a Protestant, you were raised a Protestant, and now you are a Catholic."

The men were so relieved, now their biggest Lenten temptation was resolved.

The next year's Lenten season rolled around. The first Friday of Lent came, and, just at supper time, when the neighborhood was settling down to their cold tuna fish dinner, the smell of steak cooking on a grill came wafting into their homes. The neighborhood men could not believe their noses! WHAT WAS GOING ON?

They called each other up and decided to meet over in John's yard to see if he had forgotten it was the first Friday of Lent. The group arrived just in time to see John standing over his grill with a small pitcher of water. He was sprinkling some water over his steak on the grill, saying, "You were born a cow, you were raised a cow, and now you are a fish."

Spring Wild Rice Salad

8 ounces traditionally harvested wild rice
1 garlic clove, peeled and crushed
1 cube vegetable bouillon
2 cups assorted wild or cultivated fresh spring greens, well washed, towel dried and chopped: dandelion greens,lamb's quarters or watercress, arugula and baby spinach
1/4 cup well washed thinly sliced spring onions or chives
1 to 3 tablespoons minced fresh mint or basil
1/2 cup lightly toasted coarsely chopped hazelnuts
1/2 cup hulled toasted sunflower seeds
1/2 cup each dried sweetened cranberries and dried blueberries

Preheat oven to 250 F. Rinse the rice in 3 changes of hot water. Place drained rice in a heavy-bottomed 2 quart saucepan. Add the garlic and bouillon cube to the rice. Resting the tip of your thumb on the surface of the rice, add enough cold water to come up to the knuckle(about 4 cups of water per cup of rice). Place pan over high heat and bring water to a boil. Cover tightly and place in oven. Cook gently for about 1 1/2 hours, until rice is tender and fluffy. Remove rice from oven, fluff with a fork, and allow to cool.

What is lent? Some kind of religious thing?

it's like some jewish thing where you're atoning for your sins so you have to pick one of the food groups to quit eating for an extended amount of time. depending on what you cut out, some people call this lent or some people call it the atkins diet.

chicken biriani
raihta
paratha

water

oh its lent

have some dal

Anx said:

So if you're atoning for your sins should you then choose the food group you like the most, as to maximize your "cathartic suffering"? Or is it not about self-punishment at all? I never quite understood the concept for fasting in any religion. Body and soul are two different things, IMO.

oh, i don't know. i just made all that stuff up. it's actually a catholic thing, and i'm about as catholic as Boxcar Willie.
