Two Completely Unrelated Things
Septuagesima Sunday, meaning we're now in pre-Lent and it's time to start settling our penances and easing off the things we're going to give up or cut back on. The other thing...well, I just find this funny:
Dark Chocolate Ever Loyal
Researching diet info today I came across a post on the benefits of dark chocolate. Top of the list was that it provides "Protection from disease-causing free radicals." As a Monarchist, I can't say no to that!
