Lent [lênt] -noun
(in the I’m a Christian proven by the cross I wear around my neck tradition) the forty day period between Ash Wednesday and Easter where I vow to give up chocolate, candy, or other foods Satan tempts me with as a gesture of penitence that just so happens to conveniently fall before swimsuit season. And because Jesus wants me to be a size 24 instead of a 25.
