The fast includes fasting from eggs, too? I think I remember that.

One of my Lenten favorites is 15 (or 16) bean soup. It’s not expensive to have meals for 15 people, approx. You need the package of beans, juice of one lemon, a whole onion cut up, salt and pepper to taste, and one can of stewed tomatoes. It takes several hours to cook, but it’s worth it.
Just outstanding, with either cornbread or homemade bread. Outside of Lent, it’s good with hamhocks, or diced ham, whatever. The bean package includes a packet of vegetarian ham flavor, if desired, but I like it better without the artificial flavoring.

There's nothing wrong with your memory! Just remember how good all that oatmeal will be for you all!
