Lent is a solemn religious observance in the Christian liturgical calendar that begins on Ash Wednesday and ends approximately six weeks later, before Easter Sunday. Wikipedia

Re: Have You Given Anything Up For Lent?

I have often given up something for Lent in past years and I'm not in the slightest bit religious.

It was fun when giving something up but last year and this year has been more focused on illnesses within the family so I completely forgot about it. Maybe next year?
