Late start for Lent

After a week in France, skiing with family and friends, I have come home and decided to give up alcohol and meat for lent. It's going to be a bit of a challenge for me, living with 3 big carnivores but I'm sure I will see some benefits! A week in a catered chalet, lunch on the slopes and as much beer and wine as you could drink, has left me feeling in need of a detox. The vegetable soup is on for tommorow!
Unable to commit on Ash Wednesday, I am going to throw myself into this.........
