What happens on March 1?

I shared in my comments with another Slicer on Sunday, March 1^st, the first day of slicing, that I’m not very good at doing anything every day, for more than a week.  I wrote this after a trip to the grocery store and a dash to the kitchen to start a hearty Sunday dinner that would yield leftovers for several other meals.  I resolved, while at the grocery store, to follow those good health recommendations of filling half the plate with vegetables.  I filled my basket with asparagus for oven roasting, and a beautiful acorn squash.  I started the entree and turned on the oven to preheat for my veggies. 

I love the first day of March, so many new pieces!  I read and commented.  When I looked up from the laptop an hour had passed.  The entree was nearly done; the squash and asparagus -- still in the grocery bags next to my purse. I hadn't even squirreled- away the bag of chocolates I’d planned on hiding.

 I’m hoping I don’t lose my focus on Slicing as quickly as I did with my veggie preparation!
