It is an education process for me as I learn about the psychology of spiritual apostasy. And others get the benefit of perhaps hearing righteousness for the first time.

I went to bed for a nap tonight and had a dream that Chobani's was still open in Portage and I was shopping in there and the clerk said "if you spend two more dollars you get ten dollars off" or something like that so I bought a bunch of strawberries for about $2.49 and then I woke up.

Does it taste good?  It's delicious. I put a lot of vanilla sugar in it. It makes the cake so much better. Oh, and it has the form of a bear.

Εὔγε!  Btw, ain't it Ash Wednesday in the Netherlands today? I'm doing Lent on the Julian, honestly!  Ah no, I'm greatly underweight (50-55kg while I'm around 2 meter tall) and would probably be hospitalised if I'd fast. I'll fast from some other things though.

Still, you could have sprinkled ashes instead of vanilla sugar on your arktomorphic cake to share it with some poor Gregorian-calendar-abiding soul.

Eating only what you like and not mixing the stuff you like explains (at least partly) why you are underweight. A bit of ἄρτος κακώσεως every now 'n Lent might just save you from yourself. It can be bear-shaped, if you like.

I can only bake a cake when I purchase the pre-prepared powder where you only have to add eggs and oil; and even then, I still need my mother's help. I commend you for baking a cake!

Taking out the trash for your wife is a cure for death too, although it only works temporarily. Now NOT taking out the thrash is a good cure for life
