Kersley Fitzgerald is an accidental cartoonist who is attempting to give up coffee shops for Lent. Which is really rather odd, because she's Protestant. But, to make up for it, she didn't know when Lent actually started and spent the first morning at Starbucks. She doesn't drink Chai anymore, though--too much sugar. She's all about the half-caff-grande-skinny-vanilla with a sprinkle of cinnamon and eight sprinkles of nutmeg. And, since she's from the Pac NW, she's licensed to order a coffee beverage that takes up to four minutes to name. But she's not from Seattle, so she can't take ten minutes. She's from Portland. And her parents lived just up the hill from Widmer's. Which means she's allowed to drink girl beer, like honey-raspberry-wheat. Although she recently discovered Guinness, so that's alright. She can drink Guinness because her grandfather's family was Irish-Catholic. Which brings us back to Lent. See how everything in her life fits together so nicely?
