Friday fasting
Friday, 23. November 2007, 17:29:09
I want to forget about going home and cooking. I know I should not spend much money in eating out, but why not nice kebab from fast food joint?
Unfortunately it is not so simple for me. For the Orthodox Christians, Friday is fasting day as well as Wednesday, so we are supposed not to eat meat or fish. (We might not be allowed to consume dairy, but I don't remember exactly and I won't observe so strictly anyway). It is rather inconvenient rule, as it makes difficult for me to go out Friday night.
I do sometimes break the rule, but not without feeling the sense of guilt.
So, unfortunately, no kebab for Fridays.
On positive note, I am going to cook fabulous chesnut mushroom risotto tonight
I know it does not make much sense to fast when one is not convinced of its meaning. It is a "I know, but" kind of thing for me, I guess.
