Lent Day 10: It's a beauty

What a gorgeous day! Perfect. I had lunch with a friend that I haven't seen in ages, yet known since first grade. Life has friends that come and go, but there are always those that near or far will always be close to your heart!

Interesting fact: Last Spring the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops asked that on the first Friday  of each month, Catholics eat meals that cost only as much as is allotted for a family of their size, that is allotted by the United States Department of Agriculture's Thrifty Food Plan. A family with 2 kids under 5 would be allotted 17.18 per day. This plan is the basis for food stamps. COULD YOU FEED YOUR WHOLE FAMILY FOR $17.18 A DAY? Something to ponder...

Today's suggested penance in several of my books says....Make a gesture of reconciliation with someone from whom you are alienated.
