Lent, Mallo Cups, and the Resistance Monster
Raise your hand if you ever gave up candy for Lent. (My hand did not go up.) But even still, I always find myself craving Mallo Cups this time of year because every kid in my Catholic school gave up candy for Lent. And Mallo Cups were the big Lenten sacrifice.
