Confirmation that all those long hours are bad for us

I gave up pastries for lent. Perhaps it should have been work.

I'll true a modern form of shriving this year too.

Cut out the rushed, the ugle, the time-marking.

If it is not the good, the true, the better or the possible, then 'fess up and ask what would happen if we 'didn't'.

So have a pastry, but only if it is a celebration of what is all and good about pastries. Savor it. Give thanks to farmers and chefs, and your company as you share it?

Jo I don't understand every bit of your comment but you really mustn't tempt me with pastries. There's lots of good things about pastries - pies pasties, egg custards etc. But it's Lent so they're out until Easter. You don't work for Ginster's by any chance?

PS. When I do get back on pastries I'm not sharing them with anyone.
