What do I have a GIVENNESS NOW to?

Not knowing the only restaurant with the best steak in town.

“Now your patient is his mother’s son.

While working your hardest, quite rightly, on other fronts, you must not neglect a little quiet infiltration in respect of gluttony.


Being a male, he is not so likely to be caught by the ‘All I want’ camouflage.

Males are best turned into gluttony with the help of their vanity.


They ought to be made to think themselves very knowing about food, to pique themselves on having found the only restaurant in the town where steaks are really ‘properly cooked.

What begins as vanity can then be gradually turned into habit.”  C.S. Lewis, The Screwtape Letters

…the calamity of vanity.
