I love you, Tep.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

In our (Lutheran) church we never gave up anything for Lent. I was initially confused when my friends would talk about what they were giving up.
On the way to Green Bay, there was a little unincorporated town that had one restaurant/bar, and it had a sign that said "Fish Fry Fri." My dad explained what it meant.
My dad has an anti-Catholic bias, which is probably why I used to think Catholics are weird....
We had pancakes and bacon for dinner Sunday night.
Call it Butter Sunday and you're in good with the Russians.

In re collops, isn't that the same root as scallopine? Like, veal scallopine is little circles of veal, cooked nicely. Probably also the same root word that gives us scallop, which is a small, coincidentally circular, bite of meat from out of a particular kind of shellfish.
(AFAIK scallops, like oysters, used to be poor people's food, until suddenly they weren't. I don't think veal was ever poor people's food, but bacon in tiny tiny portions, eaten possibly once a month or once a year, certainly was.)

Lobsters, too.
We had paczkis at work yesterday. I had pancakes over the weekend. . . but perhaps I'll make some for supper tonight and since I am not actually Catholic - I can eat them later on too.
Collop Monday? What the hell is THAT?
Thank you, Robin. Now we know it's a small morsel of meat. I intend to catch up and have some small morsel of meat today.
Happy Ffffffat Tuesday, y'all.
