June 24...it's finally here!
Every year Shellie gives something up.
As a personal discipline, she chooses a food she enjoys and goes on a year-long fast. In the past she has given up chips and ice cream. This past year, it was pizza.
Imagine your senior year of high school without pizza. I would have starved!
Her determination inspired me. When she gave up chips, I did too. Last year I went really nuts...no salt or butter.
Later today we are headed to Christiano's, a great pizza place in Green Lake, to have a peperoni pizza.
I'm still steering clear of the butter and salt. Now that it's been gone for a year, I don't miss it.
For the coming year she's pushing away the cookies. I still haven't decided...coffee, chocolate, candy??
After butter and salt, nothing seems that extreme.
Way to go Shell!
