This year for Lent, I am giving up Unhappiness. Or to phrase it more positively, I am going to work on being happy.
Either way, I plan on being less of a miserable cow.
(I think a week in the Bahamas, returning to a clean house with a newly-employed nanny and housekeeper should do it.)
What are you giving up for Lent?

I don’t normally give up anything, but I like the sound of your idea lol
Thank you!
Ha! We need a meme on faces in food. I’ve got a great yorkshire pudding with “The Scream” in it.
Perfect for Halloween!
I’ll join that meme, I’ve also got a picture of a sausage that looks remarkably like a man’s appendage….
That definitely has to be one of the best things to give up! I might just join you, lol.

Thank you, I’m hoping it will work and on days when I am not feeling the happy I am going to look at my picture of my happy pancake
Likewise I like the idea of giving up unhappiness. You should make a badge! (I say you, cause I don’t know how yet)
And then maybe a party to end all our pity parties! I’ll get the party hats and streamers!
Anyway, I hope you don’t give up your blog xXx

Your smiley pancake is fab!
I have given up comfort food and am sat here craving all sorts. Must keep tapping away and then I’ll be too busy to eat!
Good luck with the search for hapiness.

I should give up sorrow. PND is far too wearying. I do have a Pancake link up if you fancy it.
Aww you always seem happy to me. I think you are lovely. I can understand the holiday and nanny/cleaning part. I’ve never done the whole lent thing so I guess I’m not giving anything up as such. xx
Ella, that’s brilliant and a much better idea than making yourself miserable by giving up one of the treats that gets you through the day. I was thinking of giving up ironing, but am tempted to copy you instead!
