Since it is vitally important that you know this information about me that I am just about to tell you, hold onto your chair or couch or whatever it is that gravity is attaching you to...because this is pretttyyy big. I am......Greek Orthodox! Yes, yes it is AWESOME! It's basically the same as Catholic except we have communion ever since we are baptized as babies. We also don't get confirmed!! Ya it's kind of the bomb diggity...times two. But we have very different Easters. I do not really know why, I guess our calenders are just way different. And neither one is on the right date or the wrong date for Christ's Resurrection...but mines on the right date. Haha just kidding...but I'm not....but I am...not. So my Easter is on May 5th! Lucky me I get to wait all the way until then! I gave up ice cream for lent. Man it has NOT been going good. I'm losing my mind! My mom of course keeps my basement freezer stocked with at least like 12 pints of Ben and Jerry's at any given time. It is driving me bananas. So my aunt and uncle invited us to go to an Easter brunch with them and my grandparents plus my cousin. It was at the Evanston Country Club and OH MY GOSH. It was honestly the most food I've ever seen. It was also FRIKIN AMAZING!!! I did not eat one thing that I wouldn't mind eating all day for the rest of my life. There was an omelet station, cinnamon rolls, hash browns, mini pizzas, apple and nutella sandwiches which were so good, all fruit, any kind of meat you can think of and any kind of breakfast roll egg or food I think on this planet...was there. There was also very extravagant desserts. MMMM....then I saw it...the ICE CREAM. It was taunting me, and calling my name. There came a point where I broke down and gave in. I ate ice cream. Gasp!! But that's what you gave up for lent Jackie!! How could you?!? I know I know, but I really don't regret it. It was soo yummy!!!:) With hot fudge and resse's and oreo's and M&M's and whipped cream! Mmmm it was delish! I only ate one meal for that whole day, and it was at that country club. It might have been the best day of my life. The country club is really nice too. Man it's really gorgeous in there. I wish I belonged there, but I don't and I hate myself and my family everyday because of it. Haha Pitch Perfect moment there. okay
