eaten, including meat and dairy, each day this week. This is done at the onset of the Triodion
to remind us that the Great Fast, upon which we shall soon embark, should not be
accomplished with pharisaic pride-of-accomplishment, but rather with the saving humility of
recognizing our sins and repenting of them and confessing them in the hope of obtaining
from God the Great Mercy.]
