Rationalisation.

How good are you at dubious reasoning to gain pleasure ?

A few years ago we stopped having cake or biscuits with our mid morning coffee. This was in an attempt to enjoy life for a few more years than might otherwise be the case. It has worked so far.l
And yet here we are at 10.15 a.m. with cake. Admittedly only half a piece, but still cake.
How can that be justified ? Well we are in the Bird Reserve cafe and we tell ourselves that the cake pfofit will go towards protecting our feathered friends !
Of course we could have put the cost of the cake in the collection box on the counter.

But then we are only human !
