what choice of dinner on Fridays during Lent do you fix or order??? Im NOT a practicing Catholic but I dont eat meat on Fridays during Lent, but we had the best ribs and hash browns with the best salad bar on Wednesday night and we brought some home, and by gawd I want that for supper tomorrow night, and oh yeah, ITS FRIDAY. What should I do???

What's Fish... a vegetable????
(BTW, I'm a 'recovered' Catholic... "not afraid of burning in Hell".
