The first few days, I felt like I was treating myself, more than anything. The first time a Lenten commitment didn't feel like much of one!
Today I'm experiencing my first challenge, and it's not one I had expected! The lingering scents of food. Blech. I live in a small, one room space and I sleep in the kitchen. There is no escaping the scents. I've scrubbed my kitchen down, food is in the fridge, dish of coffee grounds in the fridge, compost in the freezer, running the air purifier on max, had windows open during cooking and for an hour after... But when I came back in just now, ugh.
Probably some people like cooking smells. I like air to smell only like a leaves and rain.
I won't quit on this count, but there's my first challenge!
Now have a beeswax candle lit and a bowl of vinegar out.
