After classes I went to Ross's 24 hour restaurant and no I didn't eat, but I got a quart of chicken noodle soup and took it home. I drank two big mugs of the broth and left the solid part for my wife. It was hot, spicy, salty and delicious. I think it could have an effect on me tomorrow. Another good day of fasting ended. reason # 9 for fasting : to develop patience.
