Her intentions were good and I'm doing similar. For Lent I gave up
bourbon aged more than 15 years, only A2 Wagyu beef, no A5, limit of 12
ounces of beer at a time. Yes, it is difficult but you just have to do it.
My late Uncle married a Catholic woman. (He did not convert but agreed
to allow the children to be raised Catholic; as far as I know only my
Aunt and their daughter took the whole Catholic thing seriously.) Every
year my Uncle gave up beer for Lent. He had never been a beer drinker. ;)
Ok, I'll give up bourbon for Lent.
