All wonderful rituals; all good for the soul. For those who hate a meatless day, remember that in the Middle Ages, there were over 150 meatless days. It’s why King Richard the Third’s remains revealed a diet very high in fish.

That's very interesting... I never stopped to think of how many days there were! One of my favorite Friday meals: grilled cheese with vegetarian vegetable soup! And thanks to "Mrs. Paul" for inventing the fish stick!

It really wasn't so bad... It was another day of pasta most of the time, with different additives: beans; chick peas; green peas; butter; meatless sauce. They even kept us meatless in school! Funny, I still don't eat meat most Fridays... It just goes against the grain- pun intended! 😀🐟🐡

God bless you!
