For those of you who missed it, I’m doing a modified Coptic fast for Lent this year. It has been a good thing for me but here are the five things I’m missing during this Lent.

Tuna fish sandwiches. One of my go-to Lenten meals on the go is tuna fish sandwiches from Subway with American cheese, salt, pepper, and a couple decent handfuls of pickles. If I was out and about on a Sunday this year, I might consider it. For Fridays however, it’s no bueno.

Pizza. There’s a lot of house repair and painting going on around here and on nights after a day that includes a lot of work, the go-to meal is pizza. If I were celebrating a normal western Lent, I could do vegetarian pizza on Fridays or Hawaiian pizza on other days. Not so much right now although I’m pretty sure Round Table would make a vegan pie for me if I asked.

Whole milk in my coffee. I think it was Jessica of Housewifespice who talked about how her coffee needed to taste like ice cream. I concur. I can put coconut milk in my morning/afternoon latté but it’s not the same.

Ice cream. I could probably get coconut milk ice cream but I’m choosing to forgo that at this point. Still, I miss Magnum Bars and stuff like that.

Samoas. I know Thin Mints are vegan but Samoas are my comfort cookie. 🙁

Go love up Ashley and
